IPMI

The AM4210 supports an intelligent hardware management system based on the Intelligent Platform
Management Interface (IPMI) Specification 1.5. It provides the ability to manage the power, cooling and
interconnect needs of intelligent devices, to monitor events and to log events to a central repository.

The MMC (“Module Management Controller”) controls all hotswap and E-Keying processes required by ATCA.
It activates the board power supply and enables communication with the AMC carrier and the RTM. The MMC
manages the Ethernet switch E-Keying and the baseboard ATCA feature. The controller is connected to the
IPMC of the ATCA carrier board via IPMB-L bus.

All voltages and currents on the base board are monitored by the MMC, including the management and AMC
supply. Three temperature sensors on the board make sure that thermal conditions are met:

• Temp CPU (Cavium Internal Sensor)

• Temp Dual GE (i82571EB Ethernet Controller Internal Sensor)

• Temp Outlet

For more information on the thermal design and management, consult the “Thermal Consideration” section.
