Hi, I lately aquired an SuperMicro PDSMi+ motherboard and the IPMI AOC-IPMI20-E daughterboard. I can report that the ipmi driver in 6.2 is working just fine and I can use ipmitool to access the module from the hostsystem. The only problem is that the IPMI module loses its network connection and is not reachable via IP some times, this espacially happens after a SOL session. If the server is up I can issue a cold reset for the module and I can reach it again, I'm not sure if this has anything todo with freebsd and problems with the em driver or if it is just the firmware of the module but if anyone has experience with this stuff maybe he can give me a hint what could causing this problems at all. Currently it is configured with a different MAC and a different IP than the host system, haven't tried same MAC and IP yet. Shouldn't make a difference, should it? greetings, philipp
