Details:
Hello,
Description of the problem:
Lan channels 8 to 11 are not usable (usefull for Tyan motherboards using lan
channel 8)
According to the errata 409 ("E409 Addendum - Additional IPMI Channel Number
support") these channels are now usable for lan, you could consult this errata
here :
https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/product-briefs/second-gen-interface-spec-v4.pdf
This documentation also refer to these new available la channels in "Table 6-,
Channel Number Assignments" page 49 (75 of the pdf) :
https://www.intel.com.tw/content/www/tw/zh/servers/ipmi/ipmi-second-gen-interface-spec-v2-rev1-1.html
Fix:
This minor patch enable the new lan channels, it work for my usage but I did
not check the whole code and I probably miss some others required patchs or
checks.
