1 Web Remote Console Login

aBMC provides a visual Web management interface for server-wide monitoring, hardware operations and maintenance, firmware upgrades, and other operations.

1.1 Environment Preparation

1.1.1 Server Network Cabling

Before logging in, connect the aBMC management network port to the LAN and ensure connectivity between the operation PC and the BMC management IP.

Two types of management network ports are supported; choose as needed:

  • Shared network port: Reuses the server's service NIC, carrying both service traffic and BMC management traffic;
  • Dedicated eth0 network port: An independent hardware network port that carries only BMC management commands, isolating the service network.

1.1.2 Query the aBMC Management IP

You can run the ip / ifconfig commands in the server's local Linux system to read the eth0 network port IP address.

1.2 Web Client Environment Requirements

The browser compatibility and resolution standards are as follows:

    • Firmware upgrade page: Batch update the firmware of each compute unit;

Security tip: On first login, change the default account password immediately and update it regularly to reduce the risk of device intrusion. For complete feature descriptions, refer to the accompanying "aBMC User Guide".

2 SSH Remote Login

  1. Use the system's built-in ssh tool or a terminal application such as MobaXterm locally;
  2. Enter the aBMC management IP and the default account and password to complete the login.
