[Choi, P. <pau...@lm...>]

Thx for reply.
"Is the IPMI NIC patched into the network?"
       -I don't quite understand your question. Could you please explain
to me more?

"Is 10.2.12.124 on the same subnet as the machine that you are running 
the ipmitool command from?"
       - Yes it has same 10.2.0.0 subnet and netmask.

Thx again

Is the IPMI NIC patched into the network?

Is 10.2.12.124 on the same subnet as the machine that you are running 
the ipmitool command from?
