With the Supermicro Embeded BMC, is it possible to connect to Serial Over Lan via SSH?
- by Stefan Lasiewski
I have several dozen Supermicro servers which use the Supermicro Embedded BMC. The documentation on that page suggests that I can access the Serial Over LAN (Serial Console) over SSH:
SMASH and CLP support
SSH based SOL
Power control of the server
But when I ssh into my BMC, all I see is a Busybox implementation, with no clear ability to connect to the SOL:
# ssh 192.168.100.100 -l ADMIN
[email protected]'s password:
BusyBox v1.1.3 (2011.02.12-01:48+0000) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
# show
-sh: show: not found
# smash
-sh: smash: not found
Supermicro support is giving me inconsistent answers. Is it possible to connect to the SOL via the SSH interface?
