10.9.1 Firmware Upgrade

The IPMI's operational code can be upgraded via the open-source tool "ipmitool" or via uEFI BIOS com-
mands. The upgrade tool/commands allow download and activation of new operational code and also
rollback to the "last known good" operational code. For further information on the IPMI firmware up-
grade, refer to the uEFI BIOS Chapter in this manual and the IPMI Firmware User Guide.
10.9.2 IPMI Firmware and FRU Data Wr ite Protection
If the board is plugged in a write-protected CompactPCI slot, neither the IPMI firmware or the FRU data
can be updated or reprogrammed. The IPMI firmware stores the write protect state in it's local NV-RAM.
Note:
The write protection mode is still active when the payload is off even if the IPMI firmware re-
boots. To disable the write protection mode, plug the board in a non-write-protected Com-
pactPCI slot and switch on the payload.
10.10 L A N Fu n c t i o n s
Four Gigabit Ethernet channels on the board support IPMI over LAN (IOL) and Serial over LAN (SOL).
While IOL serves to transport IPMI commands and their responses via Gigabit Ethernet, SOL serves to
transport any serial data via Gigabit Ethernet.
Please note that IOL and SOL need the Ethernet device to be powered. Therefore, the board (payload)
must be fully powered.
For information on the assignment of the IOL/SOL channels, refer to the "Gigabit Ethernet" section in
the "Functional Description" chapter.
