5.3 Firmware / Module Identification
IPMI provides two methods to identify the AM5020 MMC firmware:
• Issuing the IPMI Command Get Device ID
• Reading the Device Locator Record (SDR Type 12h)
A full description of the IPMI command Get Device ID and the Device Locator Record
(SDR Type 12h) can be found in the IPMI specification. For further information refer to Table
2, Related Publications.
IPMI Command: Get Device ID
The response on the IPMI command Get Device ID offers the following information
(among others):
• Manufacturer ID = 3A98h / 15000d (Kontron IANA ID)
• Device ID = 20h (NXP LPC2368)
• Product ID = identifies the firmware (its board family firmware)
• Firmware revision (byte 4:5) reflects the core version of the running firmware, which will
change only after major functional update.
• SDR revision (byte 13, OEM extension) will be incremented with each firmware update
For a description of the OEM extensions refer to Chapter 3.1, “Get Device ID Command with
OEM Extensions”.
Device Locator Record
The Device Locator Record (SDR Type 12h) contains a Device ID String which identifies the
MMC as AM5020 MMC. Additionally, some run-time information such as AMC slot and slot-
dependent IPMB address is available in this record.
For example, when using the Linux “ipmitool” on a AM5020 placed in the first AMC slot of a
µTCA system, by calling:
the following information is displayed:
ipmitool sdr list mcloc
