It works well. I just started using it here a month or two ago on a couple of
my servers. I can remotely power them up or down with the tool.

My bad. I'm still getting up to speed with the Dell server management
components, from the Lifecycle Controller to the USC and UEFi it's a bit
blurry. I'm pretty certain the BMC has a different name since that acronym
isn't on the R710 or R610's I have.
PS.
Gotta give credit where credit is due:
Thats what it was on all of my servers as well. I found the DRAC was better
than the BMC for use on one server but if monitoring more than one server
the BMC was better.

Don't think that's accurate. the DRAC has always been the DRAC (Dell Remote
Access controller). The BMC is a monitoring tool, that collects motherboard
info.

That's some bad hat, Harry.

What's the OS of the server? I had a similiar issue recently, although Dell
has renamed the BMC to iDRAC, and needed to update the firmware via Service
Console on my ESX 4.1 server.
If it's windows, download the firmware update package for the BMC, apply it,
reboot and see if that works out.

I don't remember now but I think the Dell one was strictly HTTPS. I am out
of that now so I don't have one to look at.

I'm not familiar with the Dell one, but I am with the HP equivalent.
First, are you sure there isn't an IP conflict? Unlikely, but possible.
Second, try running nmap against the IP and see what ports it says are open. If
you're not familiar with nmap, it's free, easy to install, and for basic us
