6/ Configuration

6.1. BMC

6.1.1. WebGUI Introduction

The WebGUI is a friendly interface for the end users. A user can access the iBMC via a web browser, and then go
through the server status and do many configurations to the IBMC.
The default user privilege is set to administrator. The web function access rights are determined by different
privileges. For example, the administrator privilege can access all functions, but the user privilege cannot.
The WebGUI provides many useful functions, such as:
firmware update
system power control
system event log (SEL)
current sensor reading
configuration for: BMC network, user accounts, PEF, alerts, SOL, information about BMC, and the system

6.1.2. IP Address

Static and DHCP are the two common IP sources of iBMC. The default setting is DHCP. The detailed IP address
information is available from the BIOS setup menu.

6.1.3. User Name and Password

A user name and password are required to establish a WebGUI session. The user should also have accessibility to the
LAN channel. Use the system management software to set the user name, password, and grant access. The default
setting is shown below:
ID 2: User Name = admin

6.1.4. Web Browser

iBMC supports either Microsoft Internet Explorer or Firefox.
The embedded web server provides full access. The WebGUI is accessible via the HTTP protocol or via the encrypted
HTTPS protocol.

6.1.5. Logging in

To log in to the WebGUI, enter the iBMC IP address into a web browser. An example of using the HTTP protocol is
http://192.168.1.1. An example of using the encrypted HTTPS protocol is https://192.168.1.1

6.1.6. Updating the Firmware

Many common problems can be resolved by updating the firmware. The BMC FW can be updated through a host-
based utility or through the WebGUI.
6.1.6.1. Restoring the Default Configuration
The BMC FW supports an OEM command to restore all of the configuration values to their defaults. Using the OEM
command restores all IPMI configuration parameters and all Linux user configuration files (password, group, and so
on). The OEM command is not available to the end user, but the WebGUI provides a friendly interface to do this. This
command does not restore the SEL records.
End-users may choose to restore the default configuration when updating firmware through the utilities or the
WebGUI.
