IPMI Service State and Supported IPMI Sessions
By default, the IPMI service state in Oracle ILOM is enabled. The following IPMI sessions are supported as of Oracle ILOM firmware version 5.0.0:
-
TLS Sessions — Enabled by default.
-
IPMI v2.0 Sessions — Disabled by default
The service processors (SPs) on your Oracle managed devices (servers, blade server
modules, and so on) are IPMI compliant. You can access IPMI functionality through the command
line using the IPMItool
interface either in-band (using the host operating
system running on the server) or out-of-band (using a remote system). Additionally, you can
generate IPMI-specific traps from the Oracle ILOM web interface, or manage the SP IPMI functions
from any external management solution that is IPMI compliant. For more information about the
IPMItool utility, see IPMItool.
