Native Command Line IPMI Message Bridging
Native Command Line supports the ability to bridge IPMI messages to another interface when binary hex-
ASCII IPMI commands are used. The message bridge is determined by the following: the bridge field,
whether the message is a request or a response, the message direction with respect to the BMC and the
LUN. Table 8-3 lists the supported BMC combinations for IPMI message bridging. Any other combinations
are unsupported.
Note that IPMI messages to and from the system interface are transferred using the BMC SMS (System
Management Software) LUN, 10b, and with the bridge field set to 00b.
