The embedded web user interface supports strong security (authentication, encryption, and
firewall support) since it enables remote server configuration and control. Embedded web server
uses ports #80 and #443. The user interface presented by the embedded web user interface
shall authenticate the user before allowing a web session to be initiated. Encryption using 128-
bit SSL is supported. User authentication is based on user id and password.
The GUI presented by the embedded web server authenticates the user before allowing a web
session to be initiated. It presents all functions to all users but grays-out those functions that the
user does not have privilege to execute. (for example, if a user does not have privilege to power
control, then the item shall be displayed in grey-out font in that user’s UI display). The web GUI
also provides a launch point for some of the advanced features, such as KVM and media
redirection. These features are grayed out in the GUI unless the system has been updated to
support these advanced features.
Additional features supported by the web GUI includes:
Presents all the Basic features to the users.
Power on/off/reset the server and view current power state.
Displays BIOS, BMC, ME and SDR version information.
Display overall system health.
Configuration of various IPMI over LAN parameters for both IPV4 and IPV6
Configuration of alerting (SNMP and SMTP).
Display system asset information for the product, board, and chassis.
Display of BMC-owned sensors (name, status, current reading, enabled thresholds),
including color-code status of sensors.
Provides ability to filter sensors based on sensor type (Voltage, Temperature, Fan and
Power supply related)
Automatic refresh of sensor data with a configurable refresh rate.
On-line help.
Display/clear SEL (display is in easily understandable human readable format).
Supports major industry-standard browsers (Microsoft Internet Explorer* and Mozilla
Firefox*).
The GUI session automatically times-out after a user-configurable inactivity period. By
default, this inactivity period is 30 minutes.
Embedded Platform Debug feature - Allow the user to initiate a “diagnostic dump” to a
file that can be sent to Intel for debug purposes.
Virtual Front Panel. The Virtual Front Panel provides the same functionality as the local
front panel. The displayed LEDs match the current state of the local panel LEDs. The
displayed buttons (for example, power button) can be used in the same manner as the
local buttons.
Display of ME sensor data. Only sensors that have associated SDRs loaded will be
displayed.
Ability to save the SEL to a file.
Ability to force HTTPS connectivity for greater security. This is provided through a
configuration option in the UI.
Display of processor and memory information as is available over IPMI over LAN.
Ability to get and set Node Manager (NM) power policies.
Display of power consumed by the server.
Ability to view and configure VLAN settings.
Warn user the reconfiguration of IP address will cause disconnect.
