Re: [Freeipmi-users] ipmiconsole fails on Dell M610

[Hank Bruning]

Hey,
The Java implementation of IPMI (JBlade Hemi,
http://www.jblade.com/products/hemi/hemiDC/HemiDcOverview.jsf) does work
with the Dell 610.
A guess. It is possible that you have RMCP session with a cipher suite,
let's call it X.
and you request a SOL session with cipher suite Y.

IPMI can reassign the UDP port when activation the SOL session because it
has a different cipher suite.
In other words if you have existing RMCP session with a cipher suite X and
activate a SOL session and request a cipher suite that is not X the RMCP
server can via the IPMI protocol move the new SOL session to another UDP
port. This causes firewalls to block the new SOL UDP port number(that is
totally random).

Send the Log, it might show a switch from the UDP port 623 to some other
port.
Or not. I'm curious why the problem. What you are trying to do should work.
