Configure BMC management address on BMC console

From the BMC console, run the following commands:

ipmitool -H 127.0.0.1 -U admin -P admin lan set 1 ipsrc <static or dhcp>

ipmitool -H 127.0.0.1 -U admin -P admin lan set 1 ipaddr xxx.xx.xxx.xx

ipmitool -H 127.0.0.1 -U admin -P admin lan set 1 netmask 255.255.255.0

ipmitool -H 127.0.0.1 -U admin -P admin lan set 1 defgw ipaddr xxx.xx.xxx.254

Run the Unified Firmware Updater from a Linux server

1. Deploy a Linux OS (CentOS, RedHat, Ubuntu) that connects to the VEP4600 BMC network. Can be a VM based Linux

server.

2. Verify you can reach the BMC ip address with ipmitool:

test@LinuxVM:~/UFW$ ipmitool -I lanplus -H xxx.xx.xx.xxx -U admin -P admin power

status

Chassis Power is on

3. Run the UFW from the Linux server with the following command:

./vep4600_ufw_x.x <BMC IP address> interactive

test@LinuxVM:~/UFW$ ./vep4600_ufw_x.x xxx.xx.xxx.xx interactive
