FortiGate-7030E System Management Module
Connecting to the SMM using an IPMI tool
You can install an IPMI tool on a management computer and then use this tool to send IPMI commands over your
network to the SMM MGMT interface. The IPMI tool allows you to communicate with the SMM by entering
IPMI commands. The IPMI commands are the same as the CLI commands described in this chapter but include
parameters such as the MGMT interface IP address and SMM administrator username and password.
For example, you can use the following IPMI command to change the SMM MGMT interface IP address:
sudo ipmitool -I lanplus -H <mgmt-ip> -k gkey -U <username> -P <password> lan set 4 ipaddr
172.20.120.30
Use the following IPMI command to change the SMM password:
sudo ipmitool -I lanplus -H <mgmt-ip> -k gkey -U <username> -P <password> user set password 2
<password>
To perform an operation on a module according to its chassis slot include the
command. For example, to list the sensors on the FIM module in chassis slot 2 (0x82), use the following IPMI
command:
sudo ipmitool -I lanplus -H <mgmt-ip> -k gkey -U <username> -P <password0> -t 0x82 sensor
FortiGate-7030E chassis slots IPMB addresses
The following table lists the IPMB addresses of the FortiGate-7030E chassis slots.
Chassis slot number
SMM
3
1
4
You can use the IPMB address or chassis slot number to reference a chassis slot when entering commands in the SMM
CLI. For example, enter either of the following commands to display sensor readings for the FIM module in slot 2:
sensor 0x84
sensor 2
When command syntax descriptions in this chapter include the
(1, 3, or 4) or an IPMB address number (0x82, 0x86, or 0x88)
Rebooting a chassis module from the SMC SDI CLI
A common use of the SMC SDI CLI is being able to remotely reboot a FIM or FPM module.
From any SMC SDI CLI use the following command to reboot the module in slot 3:
mc reset 3 warm
