the openbmc seems only support IPMI's KCS messge interface, about other message interface(such as LAN, serial/modem) is not support. While openbmc may support SOL, without lan and serial interface, the SOL function seem useless.

We have implemented an application that can route the VUART of the host
to a number of different locations. See
https://github.com/openbmc/obmc-console .

I believe we currently use this to route over an SSH connection, but
@jk-ozlabs could fill in more details on what we currently do and what
we are considering doing in the future.

e, over an ssh connection?
why not implements RMCP+ protocol, according to standard IPMI v2.0.
recently, I'm little confuse about the function of openbmc's project, compared to bmc running in server.
Openbmc is only focused on little witch box?

The current implementations did not have a need (or desire) for IPMI, due to the data centers they were being deployed into. We recognize for a general-purpose / commercial server market IPMI is desirable but it has not been implemented yet.

I'm closing this issue since the discussion has trailed off.

Utility to program the out of band switch EEPROM (#30)
cf65c4b 
Summary:
Note: this supersedes pull request facebookexternal/openbmc.arista#26. There were issues with my branch
so I had to create a new branch. Refer to facebookexternal/openbmc.arista#26 for previous conversation.

Utility to program the out of band switch EEPROM
Commands available are as follows:
dump
save
program
read
write

The dump command will also verify the eeprom against the checksum
at the end of the image. By default, the command only reads the
number of words found in the header. A full dump can be done by
using the --full argument.

Currently, the commands have a limitation in that the CPU power
must be on. This will be fixed in a subsequent CPLD image.

Testing performed:
Verified the following oob-eeprom-util.sh commands:
dump
save
program
read
write

Also ran the following tests:
root@bmc-oob:/usr/local/bin/tests2# ./cit_runner.py --platform elbert
test_host_mac (tests.elbert.test_host_mac.HostMacTest) ... ok
test_host_mac_zero_test (tests.elbert.test_host_mac.HostMacTest) ... ok
test_i2c_tree (tests.elbert.test_i2c.ElbertI2cTest)
check if i2c devices are created and drivers are binded properly. ... ok
test_eeprom_read (tests.elbert.test_oob_eeprom.OobEepromTest) ... ok
