Intel® Server Board S2600GZ/GL TPS Platform Management Functional Overview
have management connectivity to the BMC as well as an optional RMM4 dedicated add-in management NIC.
At least two concurrent web sessions from up to two different users is supported. The embedded web user
interface shall support the following client web browsers:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0*
Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0*
Microsoft Internet Explorer 9.0*
Mozilla Firefox 3.0*
Mozilla Firefox 3.5*
Mozilla Firefox 3.6*
The embedded web user interface supports strong security (authentication, encryption, and firewall support)
since it enables remote server configuration and control. Embedded web server uses ports #80 and #443. The
user interface presented by the embedded web user interface shall authenticate the user before allowing a
web session to be initiated. Encryption using 128-bit SSL is supported. User authentication is based on user id
and password.
The GUI presented by the embedded web server authenticates the user before allowing a web session to be
initiated. It presents all functions to all users but grays-out those functions that the user does not have privilege
to execute. (for example, if a user does not have privilege to power control, then the item shall be displayed in
grey-out font in that user’s UI display). The web GUI also provides a launch point for some of the advanced
features, such as KVM and media redirection. These features are grayed out in the GUI unless the system has
been updated to support these advanced features.
Additional features supported by the web GUI includes:
Presents all the Basic features to the users.
Power on/off/reset the server and view current power state.
