This documentation provides conceptual and procedural information about the Oracle ILOM web and command-line interfaces. However, to access all of the Oracle ILOM features and functions, you can choose to use any of, or a combination of, the following interfaces and protocols.
Web interface – The web interface enables you to access the Oracle ILOM SP or CMM through a web browser. From the Oracle ILOM web interface, you can perform daily system management operations remotely. Additionally, from the web interface, you can launch tools to redirect KVMS, or to perform maintenance and diagnostic operations.
Command-line interface (CLI) – Using an SSH client, you can access the Oracle ILOM CLI on the server SP or CMM. This command-line interface enables you to perform server management operations remotely using industry-standard DMTF-style keyboard commands and scripting protocols.
Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) – IPMI is an open, industry-standard interface that was designed for the management of server systems over a number of different types of networks. IPMI functionality includes field-replaceable unit (FRU) inventory reporting, system monitoring, logging of system events, system recovery (including system resets and power-on and power-off capabilities), and alerting.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) interface – Oracle ILOM also provides an SNMP v3 interface for third-party applications such as HP OpenView and IBM Tivoli. Some of the MIBs supported by Oracle ILOM include:
SUN-PLATFORM-MIB
SUN-ILOM-CONTROL-MIB
SUN-HW-TRAP-MIB
SUN-ILOM-PET-MIB
SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB (9RFC2271.txt)
SNMP-MPD-MIB (RFC2572)
System and SNMP groups from SNMPv2-MIB (RFC1907)
entPhysicalTable from ENTITY-MIB (RFC2737)
