I wish I could find a dmesg for it if that exists somewhere.
If you have, how is the 1x Realtek RTL8201N PHY (dedicated IPMI)s
working out for you?
I got a X7SPA also with IPMI.
Looks like the IPMI is there via Nuvoton WPCM450 BMC, so I wonder if
anyone have one and use it and how's the remote management of it is.
On the X7SPA the BMC share LAN port 1. It has its own network controller
thou. You can take a look in the official manual from the SuperMicro
site to see how to set up IPMI settings in BIOS.
Ideal is just console remote access via ssh for install and usual stuff.
Nothing graphics needed or wanted.
A web interface is supplied by the controller. Basically IPMI supply
Keyboard - Video -Mouse (KVM) over IP.
Any feedback would be appreciated if possible on or off list depending
if others might be interested in the subject.
Here is a few screen shots to give you an idea:

I don't use it myself since I have direct access to the console.
