1 on-board NIC and the optional dedicated add-in management NIC.
2 on-board NICs and optional dedicated add-in management NIC.
All NIC ports must be on different subnets for the above concurrent usage models.
MAC addresses are assigned for management NICs from a pool of up to 3 MAC addresses
allocated specifically for manageability. The total number of MAC addresses in the pool is
dependent on the product HW constraints (for example, a board with 2 NIC ports available for
manageability would have a MAC allocation pool of 2 addresses).For these channels, support
can be enabled for IPMI-over-LAN and DHCP.
For security reasons, embedded LAN channels have the following default settings:
IP Address: Static
All users disabled
IPMI-enabled network interfaces may not be placed on the same subnet. This includes the
Intel
®
Dedicated Server Management NIC and either of the BMC’s embedded network
interfaces.
Host-BMC communication over the same physical LAN connection – also known as “loopback”
– is not supported. This includes “ping” operations.
On baseboards with more than two onboard NIC ports, only the first two ports can be used as
BMC LAN channels. The remaining ports have no BMC connectivity.
Maximum bandwidth supported by BMC LAN channels are as follows:
BMC LAN1 (Baseboard NIC port) ----- 100M (10M in DC off state)
BMC LAN 2 (Baseboard NIC port) ----- 100M (10M in DC off state)
BMC LAN 3 (Dedicated NIC) ----- 100M
6.4.3.5 Dedicated Management NIC MAC Address
Intel
®
Server Board S2600CP has up to seven MAC addresses assigned to it at the Intel factory.
The printed MAC address is assigned to NIC1 on the server board.
There will be seven MAC addresses assigned as follows:
NIC 1 MAC address (for OS usage)
NIC 2 MAC address = NIC 1 MAC address + 1 (for OS usage)
NIC 3 MAC address = NIC 1 MAC address + 2 (for OS usage)
NIC 4 MAC address = NIC 1 MAC address + 3 (for OS usage)
BMC LAN channel 1 MAC address = NIC1 MAC address + 4
BMC LAN channel 2 MAC address = NIC1 MAC address + 5
BMC LAN channel 3 (RMM) MAC address = NIC1 MAC address + 6.
6.4.3.6 IPV6 Support
In addition to IPv4, Intel
®
S2600CP Server Board support IPv6 for manageability channels.
Configuration of IPv6 is provided by extensions to the IPMI Set and Get LAN Configuration
Parameters commands as well as through a Web Console IPv6 configuration web page.
