Data Center Management Interface (DCMI)

The DCMI Specification is an emerging standard that is targeted to provide a simplified

management interface for Internet Portal Data Center (IPDC) customers. It is expected to

become a requirement for server platforms which are targeted for IPDCs. DCMI is an IPMI-

based standard that builds upon a set of required IPMI standard commands by adding a set of

DCMI-specific IPMI OEM commands. Intel

S1400/S1600/S2400/S2600 Server Platforms will

be implementing the mandatory DCMI features in the BMC firmware (DCMI 1.1 Errata 1

compliance). Please refer to DCMI 1.1 Errata 1 Specification for details. Only mandatory

commands will be supported. No support for optional DCMI commands. Optional power

management and SEL roll over feature is not supported. DCMI Asset tag will be independent of

baseboard FRU asset Tag.

Lightweight Directory Authentication Protocol (LDAP)

The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is an application protocol supported by the

BMC for the purpose of authentication and authorization. The BMC user connects with an LDAP

server for login authentication. This is only supported for non-IPMI logins including the

embedded web UI and SM-CLP. IPMI users/passwords and sessions are not supported over

LDAP. LDAP can be configured (IP address of LDAP server, port, and so on) from the BMC’s

Embedded Web UI. LDAP authentication and authorization is supported over the any NIC

configured for system management. The BMC uses a standard Open LDAP implementation for

Linux*. Only open LDAP is supported by BMC. Microsoft Windows* and Novell* LDAP are not

supported.
