4.1.Using the BMC
The DGX-1 includes a baseboard management controller (BMC) that lets you manage
and monitor the DGX-1 independently of the CPU or operating system. You can access
the BMC remotely through the Ethernet connection to the IPMI port.
This section describes how to access the BMC, and describes a few common tasks that
you can accomplish through the BMC. It is not meant to be a comprehensive description
of all the BMC capabilities.
To access the BMC remotely:
1.
Make sure you have connected the IPMI port on the DGX-1 to your LAN.
2.
Open a Java-enabled browser within your LAN and go to http://<IPMI IP Address>/.
Use Firefox or Internet Explorer. Google Chrome is not officially supported by the
BMC.
