For the activation of a SOL connection (i.e. using the CLI via Ethernet), the following SOL com-
mand must be invoked:
Please note that 'lanplus', i.e. the RMCP+ protocol, must be selected for that. Because the
MCH does not support encryption, the ’-C 0’ parameter must be set.
The ’ipmitool’ will report that SOL is activated:
From now on until the SOL session is terminated, the keyboard may be used as if it were con-
nected to the CLI. Hint: To obtain help, enter '~?'. Please note that the input '~' will not be re-
flected! Just continue with entering '?'.
Please note that standard CLI access via the serial management port is switched off during a
SOL session and only one SOL session may be active at one time.
For the termination of an SOL connection enter the following:
Please note that the input '~' will not be reflected. Just continue with entering '.'.
5.2.3 Virtual LAN (VLAN)
To set the VLAN ID (e.g. 3) for the MCH using the CLI enter the following:
To set the VLAN ID (e.g. 3) for the MCH via LAN enter the following:
If the following is invoked quickly enough:
the VLAN ID can be seen as being set to 3. After a few seconds further LAN access is no longer
possible until the VLAN support on the host has been set up.
To set up a virtual LAN(e.g. 3) on a Linux host system requires root user and the module 8021q
must be loaded. If it is not loaded, invoke the following:
Assuming an Ethernet connection at "eth1", a virtual interface with the ID 3 can be created re-
sulting in an "eth1.3" interface. This is done by invoking:
ipmitool -I lanplus -U admin -P admin -H 192.168.168.211
-A NONE -C 0 -L USER sol activate
[SOL session operational. Use ~? For help]
~.
lan set 1 vlan 3
ipmitool -I lan -H 192.168.168.211 -U admin -P admin lan set 1
vlan id 3
ipmitool -I lan -H 192.168.168.211 -U admin -P admin lan print 1
modprobe 8021q
vconfig add eth1 3
