Intel Xeon Processor 3.0GHz 1MB FSB800 BOX BX80546KG3000EP User Manual

The Intelligent Platform Management Initiative (IPMI) is an 

open hardware-management interface that uses a standardized 

message-passing interface. IPMI helps enable management 

software interoperability in a heterogeneous hardware 

environment.

The Intel E7520 and Intel E7320 chipsets include an SMBus port

that supports multiple third-party base management controller

(BMC) and firmware solutions. Support for multiple third-party 

solutions not only provides flexibility and customer choice, it also

represents a significant advancement in management software 

interoperability, greatly simplifying system management.

IPMI helps enable management software that works across 

heterogeneous server system hardware via:

• Instrumentation in server motherboard hardware

• Standards-based architecture for systems and 

asset management 

• Interoperability between hardware and software management

• Increased reliability through a hierarchy of sensors that report

alerts to remote consoles

• Common architecture that applies to the 3-tier server 

architecture prevalent in modern datacenters

• Reduction in the TCO and administration with the use of 

common software user interfaces across multiple servers
