Hi there=2C I added a M3291 BMC on a TYAN S5197 motherboard and I'm trying to make it w= ork with FreeBSD 8. I first tried to set it up with Linux=2C and it was pretty annoying ... What TYAN DID say to do is : - DOS=2C flash the S5197 Motherboard with the latest BIOS=20 - DOS=2C flash the M3291 BMC with the correct Firmware - DOS=2C flash the Intel NIC (82573E) EEProm to enable IPMI - DOS=2C configure the MAC/IP of the BMC (I choose a BMC MAC different from= the NIC MAC=2C and of course an IP different from the host) - LINUX=2C "modprobe ipmi_si type=3Dkcs ports=3D0xca8 irqs=3D0 regspacings= =3D4" All that is correct but not sufficient because I can only access to the BMC= locally !!! WHAT TYAN FORGOT TO SAY IS : - DOS=2C declare the BMC MAC on the Intel NIC (82573E) EEProm "eeupdate.exe= /NIC=3D1 /MNGMAC=3D00:E0:81:XX:XX:XX" - LINUX=2C "modprobe e1000e CrcStripping=3D0" Now it works with Linux :D Now it is the FreeBSD turn :) Well=2C it doesn't work "as is" ... : - FREEBSD=2C "kldload ipmi" -> doesn't give access to the BMC locally - FREEBSD=2C "ifconfig_em0=3DDHCP" -> makes the BMC to stop responding My question : is there any equivalent in FreeBSD of the Linux kernel parame= ters that I have previously used ? Any help would be appreciated =3B)=20 Regards=2C Rafael NAVAZA. =
