Example 5-4. Dedicated MAC and VLAN Tag
This example shows an alternate configuration; the BMC has a dedicated MAC and IP address, along
with a VLAN tag of 32h will be required for traffic to be sent to the BMC. This means that all traffic with
VLAN a matching tag will be sent to the BMC.
For demonstration purposes, the dedicated MAC address will be calculated by reading the System MAC
address and adding 1 do it, assume the System MAC is AABBCCDC. The IP address for this example will
be 1.2.3.4 and the VLAN tag will be 0032h.
It is assumed the host will not be using the same VLAN tag as the BMC. If they were to share the same
VLAN tag then additional filtering would need to be configured to allow VLAN tagged non-unicast (such
as ARP requests) to be sent to the host as well as the BMC using the Manageability to Host filter
capability.
Additionally, the XSUM filtering will be enabled.
