The BMC proxy module allows you to connect to BMC or Intel AMT with internal IP addresses on DCImanager 6 locations. The module consists of the client and server parts. Both parts are docker images. The client part is installed on the server with DCImanager 6, the server part is installed on locations. VNC-connection is established for connecting to a server with the BMC or Intel AMT. You can connect to the BMC web interface or console. For a list of supported hardware, see Supported devices.

For more information please refer to the article BMC proxy module operation.
