You use a third-party IPMI utility on your computer to create a Serial Over LAN connection to the 
appliance. If your computer uses a Linux-like or Mac environment, use IPMItool; for Windows 
environments, use IPMIutil. 

Cisco recommends using IPMItool version 1.8.12 or greater.

IPMItool is standard with many distributions and is ready to use.

You must install IPMItool on a Mac. First, confirm that your Mac has Apple's XCode Developer 
tools installed, making sure that the optional components for command line development are 
installed (UNIX Development and System Tools in newer versions, or Command Line Support in 
older versions). Then you can install macports and the IPMItool. Use your favorite search engine 
for more information or try these sites:

https://developer.apple.com/technologies/tools/

http://www.macports.org/

You must compile IPMIutil on Windows. If you do not have access to a compiler, you can use 
IPMIutil itself to compile. Use your favorite search engine for more information or try this site:

http://ipmiutil.sourceforge.net/

Commands used for IPMI utilities are composed of segments as in the following IPMItool example:

ipmitool -I lanplus -H IP_address -U user_name command

where:

ipmitool

 invokes the utility

-I lanplus

 enables encryption for the session

-H IP_address

 indicates the IP address of the appliance you want to access

-U user_name 

is the name of an authorized user

-command 

is the name of the command you want to give

Cisco recommends using IPMItool version 1.8.12 or greater.

The same command for Windows looks like this:

ipmiutil command -V 4 -J 3 -N IP_address -U user_name 

This command connects you to the command line on the appliance where you can log in as if you were 
physically present at the appliance. You may be prompted to enter a password. 

Admin with LOM access

Enter the following command:
