>Description:
Before LAN driver run up, IPMI connection is working great. Once LAN
driver is up, IPMI no longer work. When I bring down the LAN driver in
FreeBSD, the IPMI connection works again.
The NIC is Broadcom 5721. It seems that LAN driver turn off pass-thru
feature of NIC.
5721 uses SMBus (I2C) to communicate with IPMI card.
>How-To-Repeat:
I am using Supermicro P8SCI with their AOC-IPMI20-E IPMI card.
I install other OS, Redhat, Windows, all work fine for IPMI.
