Updating The Dmi/Smbios Data - Lenovo NeXtScale nx360 M5 Installation And Service Manual

The KCS access method uses the IPMI/KCS interface. This method requires that the IPMI driver
be installed. Some operating systems have the IPMI driver installed by default. ASU provides
the corresponding mapping layer. See the Advanced Settings Utility Users Guide for more
details. You can access the ASU Users Guide from the Lenovo website.
Note: Changes are made periodically to the Lenovo website. The actual procedure might vary
slightly from what is described in this document.

Note: When using the remote LAN access method to access IMM using the LAN from a client,
the host and the imm_external_ip address are required parameters.

Where:
imm_external_ip
The external IMM LAN IP address. There is no default value. This parameter is required.
imm_user_id
