Supermicro Server Management : IPMI Firmware Security
■Supermicro server architecture is built on advanced technologies that provide high performance/watt, flexible IO and management features that allow Enterprises/datacenters/OEMs achieve the best ROI for their business. One of these technologies is the onboard baseboard management controller (BMC), which provides an efficient interface that enables IT administrators to manage the health of the server through temperature/voltage readings and common server maintenance tasks like BIOS upgrades and debug OS remotely through KVM consoles.
■While this feature increases convenience and productivity, server administrators need to understand that BMCs are embedded computers with an operating system and network stack that can be vulnerable to attacks if not configured properly. This paper highlights some of the best practices and features on the BMC that will help fortify your servers against malicious attacks.
