Hi,
To implement full IPMI capability on the system board, then you need
two separate and independent power distribution systems on the system
board I believe, which is why they implement IPMI with a daughterboard.
+5volt standby from the atx power supply is used to provide wake-on-lan
functionality and power a ipmi implementation. it is available when
the system is otherwise off.
Hi Joel,
Yes, but a separate and distinct power distribution for that +5 volt
supply will then need to be implemented on the system board to support
a full IPMI implementation residing on the system board.
Uh... you see it being used to power both the ethernet (for WOL) and the
Baseband mangment controller.
That was my
point. You are confusing power source with implemented PCB power
distribution.
No I'm not.
Thanks,
Karen
