4.1 Feature Support
4.1.1 IPMI 2.0 Features
 Integrated Baseboard Management Controller (Integrated BMC).
 IPMI Watchdog timer.
 Messaging support, including command bridging and user/session support.
 Chassis device functionality, including power/reset control and BIOS boot flags support.
 Event receiver device: The Integrated BMC receives and processes events from other
platform subsystems.
 Field replaceable unit (FRU) inventory device functionality: The Integrated BMC
supports access to system FRU devices using IPMI FRU commands.
 System event log (SEL) device functionality: The Integrated BMC supports and provides
access to a SEL.
 Sensor device record (SDR) repository device functionality: The Integrated BMC
supports storage and access of system SDRs.
 Sensor device and sensor scanning/monitoring: The Integrated BMC provides IPMI
management of sensors. It polls sensors to monitor and report system health.
 IPMI interfaces.
 Host interfaces include system management software (SMS) with receive message
queue support, and server management mode (SMM).
 Terminal mode serial interface.
 IPMB interface.
 LAN interface that supports the IPMI-over-LAN protocol (RMCP, RMCP+).
 Serial-over-LAN (SOL).
 ACPI state synchronization: The Integrated BMC tracks ACPI state changes that are
provided by the BIOS.
 Integrated Baseboard Management Controller (Integrated BMC) self test: The
Integrated BMC performs initialization and run-time self tests, and makes results
available to external entities.

4.1.2 Non-IPMI Features
The Integrated BMC supports the following non-IPMI features. This list does not preclude
support for future enhancements or additions.
 In-circuit Integrated BMC firmware update.
 Fault resilient booting (FRB): FRB2 is supported by the watchdog timer functionality
 Chassis intrusion detection and chassis intrusion cable presence detection.
 Basic fan control using TControl version 2 SDRs.
 Fan redundancy monitoring and support.
 Power supply redundancy monitoring and support.
 Hot-swap fan support.
