Yeah, I was a little unhappy about it being locked to a particular port too.

Is the IMPI / BMC IP always connected to the Gig1 port? Normally I use just a single physical ethernet connection but assign a different management IP to the same port so that hung machines etc. can be remotely rebooted. It works mostly ok but: I have a few machines where I am using the NIC2 interface. There it doesn't seem to work. Is the IPMI somehow tied to the Gig1 interface. ANy way to change it so that Gig2 also works? [I'm using Gig2 on some ports because a few of my servers came with the tab on the Gig1 damaged so that the connection remains lose. At that time I didn't think that this was a big deal but this might shut my ipmi options] -- Rahul _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list Linux-PowerEdge@dell.com https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list Linux-PowerEdge@dell.com https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
