HP Integrated Lights-Out 4 - Manual (Page 14)

NOTE: Disabling multicast discovery or announcements disables iLO federation features.
All devices in a federated group must have the same scope and TTL to properly enable peer
discovery.
For example:
<RIBCL VERSION="2.0">
<LOGIN USER_LOGIN="adminname" PASSWORD="password">
<RIB_INFO MODE="write">
<SET_FEDERATION_MULTICAST>
<MULTICAST_DISCOVERY_ENABLED VALUE="Yes"/>
<MULTICAST_ANNOUNCEMENT_INTERVAL VALUE="30"/>
<IPV6_MULTICAST_SCOPE VALUE="Site"/>
<MULTICAST_TTL VALUE="255"/>
</SET_FEDERATION_MULTICAST>
</RIB_INFO>
</LOGIN>
</RIBCL>
SET_FEDERATION_MULTICAST parameters
MULTICAST_DISCOVERY_ENABLED enables or disables multicast discovery. Value must be either
Yes
(enabled) or No (disabled). When enabled, this parameter makes the iLO discoverable as
federated on the network. When disabled, iLO Federation features are unavailable.
MULTICAST_ANNOUNCEMENT_INTERVAL sets the number of seconds between each multicast
availability announcement on the network. Valid values are Disabled, 30, 60, 120, 300, 600,
900
, and 1800 seconds. When disabled, iLO Federation features are unavailable.
IPV6_MULTICAST_SCOPE sets the scope of multicast discovery. Valid values are Link (link-local),
Site
(site-local), and Organization (organization-local). All devices in a federated group must
have the same scope to properly enable peer discovery.
MULTICAST_TTL sets the time to live, limiting the number of switches that can be traversed before
the multicast discovery is stopped. Any value between 1 and 255 can be used. All devices in a
federated group must have the same TTL to properly enable peer discovery.
SET_FEDERATION_MULTICAST runtime errors
Some possible SET_FEDERATION_MULTICAST error messages include:
•
The MULTICAST_ANNOUNCEMENT_INTERVAL VALUE is invalid.
•
The IPV6_MULTICAST_SCOPE VALUE is invalid.
•
The MULTICAST_TTL VALUE is invalid. Valid values are between 1 and
255.
•
User does not have correct privilege for action. CONFIG_ILO_PRIV
required.
GET_FEDERATION_ALL_GROUPS
Use the GET_FEDERATION_ALL_GROUPS command to retrieve a list of all iLO 4 Federation group
names. The command must appear within a RIB_INFO command block, and RIB_INFO MODE
must be set to read.
For example:
<RIBCL VERSION="2.0">
<LOGIN USER_LOGIN="adminname" PASSWORD="password">
<RIB_INFO MODE="read">
<GET_FEDERATION_ALL_GROUPS/>
</RIB_INFO>
