Problem

You wanted to enable LOM access in Check Point appliances.

Solution

  1. Verify the channel number of the LOM module :
    • [Expert@HostName:0]# ipmitool lan print 1|8
    • Whichever number that returned with the result will be the channel number
  2. Configure the IP address of the LOM module. Example below is for channel 8 :
    • [Expert@HostName:0]# ipmitool lan set 0x8 ipaddr 192.168.1.200
    • [Expert@HostName:0]# ipmitool lan set 0x8 netmask 255.255.255.0
    • [Expert@HostName:0]# ipmitool lan set 0x8 defgw ipaddr 192.168.1.254
  3. Start the LOM service
    • [Expert@HostName:0]# service ipmi start
