Embodiment Construction

[0014] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0015] see figure 1 and figure 2 , a BMC IP address management system 100 includes at least one switch 20 , multiple servers 40 and a management terminal 60 . Each server 40 is connected to a port of the at least one switch 20 . The management terminal 60 communicates with all the servers 40 .

[0016] All switches 20 and all servers 40 support LLDP (Link Layer Discovery Protocol, Link Layer Discovery Protocol). The switch 20 sends the LLDP packet including the port address information of the port connected to each server 40 and the identification information of the switch 20 to each corresponding server 40 based on the LLDP protocol. In one embodiment, the BMCIP address management system includes a plurality of switches 20, the identification information of the switch 20 includes the number of the switch 20, the numbers of the switches 20 are different,...

Abstract

A BMC (baseboard management controller) IP address management terminal comprises a display unit, a storage unit, a judgment unit, and a display unit. The management terminal is in communication connection with a plurality of servers, and each server comprises a BMC. The storage unit stores a BMC IP address relation table, and the BMC IP address relation table indicates the identification information of the servers corresponding to different ports of a plurality of switchers and the BMC IP addresses which are configured by the servers. The judgment unit is used for comparing the BMC IP addresses, transmitted by the servers, of the server with the BMC IP address which is correspondingly configured by the port corresponding to the identification information of the switcher connected with theserver and the port address information and is transmitted by the server in the BMC IP address relation table and determines whether the BMC IP addresses are consistent or not. The display unit displays the identification information of the server when the BMC IP addresses are not consistent. A method for managing the BMC IP is also disclosed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a BMC IP address management system, a management terminal and a management method. Background technique [0002] The BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) in the server is responsible for collecting the operation status of the server and system status information, such as system voltage, temperature and fan speed. A data center generally includes multiple servers. For the convenience of management, these servers are generally monitored through a management terminal that communicates with each server. BMC's network interface is an important channel for managing these servers. Once the BMC IP address is set incorrectly or tampered with, it may not be possible to monitor the target server. Contents of the invention [0003] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a BMC IP address management system, a management terminal and a management method that prevent the BMC IP address from being misconfigured. [0004] A BMC IP addr...
