Question 28
UnclassifiedWhat is the correct command to set the BMC network configuration on a DGX system using ipmitool?
Correct answer: A
Explanation
`ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr 10.0.0.100` uses the IPMI LAN command to assign the BMC’s IPv4 address on channel 1. The syntax matches the standard form `ipmitool lan set <channel> ipaddr <address>`, which is how BMC network settings are configured on DGX systems.
Why each option is right or wrong
A. ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr 10.0.0.100
IPMI LAN configuration is done on the BMC’s LAN channel, and on DGX systems that channel is typically 1. The `ipmitool lan set <channel> ipaddr <address>` form is the documented command for assigning the BMC IPv4 address, so `ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr 10.0.0.100` correctly targets channel 1 and sets the address to 10.0.0.100.
B. ipmitool bmc config --ip 10.0.0.100
C. ipmitool network set eth0 10.0.0.100
D. ipmitool chassis bootdev network
