IMPI carp?

[ocpistol]

So I am not sure what the IMPI port on this http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Atom/X10/A1SRi-2758F.cfm is used for but I have 2 of these boards and I was wondering if i could use that port to do carp redundancy?

Or im not really sure wth an IMPI dedicated lan is….........

That port is dedicated to the IPMI controller; you can't use it in your OS.  Some boards have shared ports.

The BMC offering IPMI is a Linux computer bonding its dedicated interface and the first mainboard interface, using the mainboard interface as failover. You should generally configure it to only use the dedicated interface on a firewall.

And no, you can't use it for CARP.
