Connecting the CTIP-01 for IPMI Control

Front Panel (DTE Serial Port)

Rear Panel (DCE Serial Port)

You can use either serial port on the CTIP-01 to send IPMI access; your choice will dictate the type of cable

you will use to make the connection. The DTE Serial port on the front panel requires the use of a null modem

serial cable. The DCE Serial port on the rear panel requires the use of a straight through serial cable.

Connect a female end of a serial cable to the serial port that is configured for IPMI access on the host

computer. Connect the opposite end (male if connecting to the DCE Serial port, female if connecting to the

DTE Serial port) to the CTIP-01.

Configuring IPMI on the CTIP-01

Once you have connected the IPMI-configured serial port to the CTIP-01 and enabled the software option,

you can begin to configure IPMI settings through the Web interface.

IPMI/IPMB setup (Intelligent Platform Management).

You will be presented with the IPMI Status menu (see above). Make the following changes to enable IPMI:

Enable IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) via serial port: select Enabled.

Select which serial port to use: select either Front serial port (DTE pin out) or Rear serial port

(DCE pin out) based on how the CTIP-01 is connected to the IPMI serial port on the host computer.

Select baud rate to use: select a value from the menu between 9600 bps and 115,200 bps based

on the configuration on the host computer’s IPMI settings.
