Manage logs and diagnostics
Perform remote operations such as power control, firmware updates, KVM, and SOL
Configure security, networking, and system parameters
The guide is intended for administrators or technical engineers managing ESN904 systems.
About the BMC Web Interface
The ESN904 BMC web interface provides a graphical, browser-based platform for out-of-band system management.
Using the BMC interface, you can:
Monitor real-time system and sensor data
Access hardware inventory and status
Review and download event logs.
Perform remote power operations
Launch the KVM or SOL console
Configure BIOS remotely
Manage user authentication and security settings
Configure networking and virtual media settings
The BMC web interface is accessible over the dedicated management network port using any supported modern browser.
Supported Browsers and Requirements

Browser performance and behavior may differ based on version and security policies. For the best experience, always use the latest stable version.
Default Login Credentials
Check BMC IP address via the command line
If the system has already booted into an operating system (Linux or Windows), you can retrieve the current BMC IP configuration using the ipmitool command.
On Linux (as root):
ipmitool lan print 1On Windows (run PowerShell as Administrator):
ipmitool.exe lan print 1Typical output:
Set in Progress
Set Complete
IP Address Source
Static Address
IP Address
192.168.0.120
Subnet Mask
255.255.255.0
Default Gateway IP
192.168.0.1
If multiple BMC channels are present, try the following commands to identify the active one: ipmitool lan print 2, ipmitool lan print 3.
Set a static BMC IP address
To configure a static IP address instead of using DHCP, run the following commands:
ipmitool lan set 1 ipsrc static
ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr 192.168.0.120
ipmitool lan set 1 netmask 255.255.255.0
ipmitool lan set 1 defgw ipaddr 192.168.0.1
After setting the values, verify the configuration: ipmitool lan print 1. This ensures that the BMC network configuration is correctly applied and remains persistent across reboots.
Accessing the web interface
The Insyde BMC web interface is accessible via the configured BMC IP address. For example: https://<BMC-IP-ADDRESS> (e.g., https://10.0.174.13)
