Configure BMC IP Address Using IPMItool

1) Display the BMC IP address information (other channel numbers such as 2, 3, 4, etc. can be used to view information about channels available on the device; typically channel 1 is configured, so the '1' in the following commands represents

channel 1)

# ipmitool lan print 1
# ipmitool channel info 1

2) Configure channel 1 to use a static IP address.

# ipmitool lan set 1 ipsrc static

3) Set the BMC IP address.

# ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr 192.168.100.142

4) Set the subnet mask for the BMC.

# ipmitool lan set 1 netmask 255.255.255.0

5) Set the IPMI gateway.

# ipmitool lan set 1 defgw ipaddr 192.168.100.254

6) Confirm the BMC IP address information

# ipmitool lan print 1
