I'm not sure what you mean by in band. The IP address of the BMC is assigned via the bios and is different from what the OS later assigns. With imiptool we can turn on/powercycle/monitor via the BMC assigned address up until the point where the kernel loads. Once it does, the BMC no longer responds. This doesn't happen with the two linux distros we've tried it on. Wtih both, including SuSE, we can still query/control via the BMC using ipmitool. It seems to be some sort of driver issue to me. I find it confusing that the NIC is shared between the BMC and the OS, but I guess that's just how it's done. Perhaps the bsd broadcomm driver is simply blocking this somehow...
you have to assign it the same address!
