Problems solved by technology

[0002] BMC is the manager of the server system hardware. If it is to be managed remotely, it must be through the LAN interface, so the user must know the IP address of the BMC before management, because if the BMC is set to a dynamic IP, then the BMC will get it through the DHCP server A set of IP addresses, the user must boot the system into the BIOS setup menu and select the BMC-related config information option, so as to know the IP address of the BMC, or obtain the IP address of the BMC through the IPMItool after booting into the OS. The IP address of the BMC must be known only after the system can be booted normally. However, if the system fails to boot normally due to an abnormal BIOS or the system hardware fails to boot normally, the IP address of the BMC cannot be known at this time.

Embodiment Construction

[0025] see figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a system for displaying the IP address of BMC, which can be connected with DHCP server 500 and obtain the IP address of dynamic BMC from DHCP server 500, and the IP address of BMC can also be set as a fixed IP address .

[0026] The system for displaying the IP address of the BMC includes:

[0027] The trigger module 100 is used to provide a trigger signal; in this embodiment, the trigger module 100 is a toggle switch, and the toggle switch is a physical button, and the physical button can be arranged on the server casing.

[0028] The display module 200 is used to display the IP address of the BMC; in this embodiment, the display module 200 is a seven-segment display.

[0029] The BMC module 300 is connected to the trigger module 100 and the display module 200, and after receiving the trigger signal, the BMC module 300 reads the IP address of the BMC and converts the format, and transmits it to the display module ...

Abstract

The invention provides a system and method for displaying an IP address of a BMC. The system comprises a trigger module, a display module and a BMC module, wherein the trigger module is used for providing a trigger signal; the display module is used for displaying the IP address of the BMC; and the BMC module is connected with the trigger module and the display module, and is used for reading the IP address of the BMC and converting the form of the IP address of the BMC after receiving the trigger signal, and transmitting the IP address of the BMC to the display module. The method comprises the following steps: detecting, by the BMC module, whether a trigger signal generated by the trigger module is received or not; if the trigger module is received, reading the IP address of the BMC and converting the form of the IP address of the BMC by the BMC module; transmitting the converted IP address of the BMC to the display module by the BMC module; and displaying the IP address of the BMC by the display module. According to the system and method provided by the invention, the trigger signal of the trigger module is generated according to the user demands, and is not obtained through a system after startup, so that the users can conveniently know the IP address of the BMC under the shutdown state or abnormal startup state.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a system and method for displaying the IP address of BMC, in particular to a system and method for displaying the IP address of BMC which is convenient for users to know the IP address of BMC in the shutdown state or in the abnormal state of startup . Background technique [0002] BMC is the manager of the server system hardware. If it is to be managed remotely, it must be through the LAN interface, so the user must know the IP address of the BMC before management, because if the BMC is set to a dynamic IP, then the BMC will get it through the DHCP server A set of IP addresses, the user must boot the system into the BIOS setup menu and select the BMC-related config information option, so as to know the IP address of the BMC, or obtain the IP address of the BMC through the IPMItool after booting into the OS. The IP address of the BMC must be known only after the system can be booted normally. However, if the system fail...
