1.0 Introduction

This user guide is written for system administrators and end-users who intend to configure the Intelligence Platform Management Interface (IPMI) settings supported by ASPEED AST2500 Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), which is integrated into the mainboard. This document provides detailed information on configuring the BMC settings supported by the AST2500 controller.

Note: All screenshots in this document are provided for illustrative purposes only and may vary from the actual product.

2.0 BMC Web User Interface Service

The BMC firmware provides an embedded web server that allows users to configure the BMC settings through the BMC Web User Interface (WebUI) service. The detailed information is listed in the following sections.

2.1 BMC WebUI Login URL

BMC WebUI service supports login the service by URL with either HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) or HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) methods. For security reasons, it is recommended that users use HTTPS to access the BMC WebUI service.

2.1.1 Configuring BMC IP Address by UEFI BIOS

To access the BMC WebUI service by URL, users can configure or obtain the BMC IP address from UEFI BIOS.

2.1.1.1 Obtain BMC IP Address from DHCP mode

  1. Boot to UEFI BIOS SETUP page.
  2. Select the Server Mgmt page.
  3. Select the BMC Network Configuration page.

4. Obtain BMC IP Address from the field of Station IP Address if Configuration address source is set to DHCP or

2.1.1.2 Setting Static BMC IP Address through UEFI BIOS

  1. Boot to UEFI BIOS SETUP page.
  2. Select the Server Mgmt page.
  3. Select the BMC Network Configuration page.
  4. Navigate to Manual setting IPMI LAN and select the [Yes].
  5. Navigate to Configuration address source and select the [Static].
  6. Once the Configuration address source is Static, the field of Station IP Address, Current subnet mask, and Current router IP address will display 0.0.0.0 and configurable, which indicates users can fill the new setting value into these fields. After filling the new value into these fields, press to save the values and reboot the system to enable these configured settings values.
