Chapter14. Redfish APIs Support
The DGX System firmware supports the ability to manage the system by using an industry
standard Redfish interface. This chapter provides details about the Redfish protocol support
that is available in the DGX A100 system and how to complete system management functions
by using the supported Redfish APIs.
Redfish is a web-based management protocol, and the Redfish server is integrated into the
DGX A100 BMC firmware. By default, Redfish support is enabled in the DGX A100 BMC and
the BIOS. By using the Redfish interface, administrator-privileged users can browse physical
resources at the chassis and system level through a web-based user interface.
Redfish provides information that is categorized under a specific resource end point and
Redfish clients can use the end points by using following HTTP methods:
‣
GET
‣
POST
‣
PATCH
‣
PUT
‣
DELETE
Not all endpoints support all these operations. Refer to the Redfish JSON Schema for more
information about the operations. The Redfish server follows the DSP0266 1.7.0 Specification
and Redfish Schema 2019.1 documentation. Redfish URIs are accessed by using basic
authentication and implementation, so that IPMI users with required privilege can access the
Redfish URIs.
