Dell EMC VEP4600 - Configure BMC Management address on BMC console; Run the Unified Firmware Updater from a Linux server

Configure BMC Management address on BMC
console
From the BMC console, run the following commands:
ipmitool -H 127.0.0.1 -U admin -P admin lan set 1 ipsrc <static or dhcp>
ipmitool -H 127.0.0.1 -U admin -P admin lan set 1 ipaddr xxx.xx.xxx.xx
ipmitool -H 127.0.0.1 -U admin -P admin lan set 1 netmask 255.255.255.0
ipmitool -H 127.0.0.1 -U admin -P admin lan set 1 defgw ipaddr xxx.xx.xxx.254
Run the Unified Firmware Updater from a Linux
server
1. Deploy a Linux OS (CentOS, RedHat, Ubuntu) that connects to the VEP4600 BMC network. Can be a VM based Linux server.
2. Verify you can reach the BMC ip address with ipmitool:
test@LinuxVM:~/UFW$ ipmitool -I lanplus -H xxx.xx.xx.xxx -U admin -P admin power status
Chassis Power is on
3. Run the UFW from the Linux server with the following command:
./vep4600_ufw_x.x <BMC IP address> interactive
test@LinuxVM:~/UFW$ ./vep4600_ufw_x.x xxx.xx.xxx.xx interactive
