Hi everyone,
I'm trying to simulate a BMC and I'm currently working on reproducing
its networking behaviour (i.e. reply to RMCP-ASF ping, IPMI auth
challenge, etc.).
According to ASF v2.0 specs (DSP0136), a pong reply should have the same
message tag as the ping message, a sequence number of 0xff and message
type of 0x40. It also carries a data payload (which is pretty simple
for a standard message and should be equal to this ->
00:00:11:be:00:00:00:00:81:00:00:00:00:00:00:00h).
I'm using rmcpping to run tests, but so far I'm unable to get a working
pong reply.
Analyzing packets with wireshark as shown no incorrect data (both in
ping and pong messages).
In the file ping-tool-common.c at line 522 (freeipmi v0.8.6), only the
message sequence number equality is tested.
My question is rather simple : what is exactly tested by rmcpping to
identify a correct pong reply ?
I've been searching through the mailing list's archives but I couldn't
find a similar problem (I've done some googling as well).
Thanks,
