BlueField Host Network Interface

Under URI redfish/v1/Systems/Bluefield, there is a collection called EthernetInterfaces representing the data ports and the OOB port of the BlueField. It is read-only and contains network information (e.g., IP addresses, MAC addresses).

curl -k -u root:'<password>' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -X GET https://<bmc_ip>/redfish/v1/Systems/Bluefield/EthernetInterfaces { "@odata.id": "/redfish/v1/Systems/Bluefield/EthernetInterfaces", "@odata.type": "#EthernetInterfaceCollection.EthernetInterfaceCollection", "Description": "Collection of EthernetInterfaces of the host", "Members": [ { "@odata.id": "/redfish/v1/Systems/Bluefield/EthernetInterfaces/eth0" }, { "@odata.id": "/redfish/v1/Systems/Bluefield/EthernetInterfaces/oob0" } ], "Members@odata.count": 2, "Name": "Ethernet Network Interface Collection" }

Info

The interface object has a field called LinkStatus which is determined by the following rules:

  • If the interface is the OOB port (i.e., oob_net0), LinkStatus would display LinkUp if the port is configured up using ifconfig/ip command.

  • If the interface is a data port (i.e., eth0/eth1 or ib0/ib1), LinkStatus would display NoLink if no QSFP cable is connected. If a QSFP transceiver is connected, the link would appear as LinkUp if the port is configured as up using the ifconfig/ip commands. If not, it displays LinkDown.

Note

If the user changed the BlueField's IP information dynamically, rebooting the BMC should show the updated IP info.
