1.3 A Brief Introduction to the IPMI
The Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) Specification provides remote access
to multiple users from different locations for networking. It also allows a system administrator
to monitor system health and manage computer events from a remote location.
IPMI operates independently of the operating system. When used in conjunction with the
IPMIView, which is an IPMI-compliant management software pre-installed in a computer, the
WPCM450 BMC Controller provides serial link connections between the South Bridge and
other onboard system components, allowing for network interfacing via remote access. With
the WPCM450 Controller and the IPMIView software built in, the motherboard allows an
administrator to access, monitor, diagnose and manage a computer system from a remote site.
It also provides remote access to multiple users from different locations for system
maintenance and network management.
