To verify the necessary networking connectivity from the build server to the target server's BMC confirm from the build server that at least port 443 is open to the target server'  iDRAC/iLO BMC IP address <SRV_OOB_IP>: 

Code Block
build_server# #nmap -sS <SRV_OOB_IP>

build_server# nmap -sS <INSERT_IP ADDRESS>


Starting Nmap 7.01 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2018-07-10 13:55 UTC Nmap scan report for <INSERT_IP ADDRESS> Host is up (0.00085s latency). Not shown: 996 closed ports PORT STATE SERVICE 22/tcp open ssh 80/tcp open http 443/tcp open https 5900/tcp open vnc Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 1.77 seconds


build_server# #nmap -sS <SRV_OOB_IP>

build_server# nmap -sS <INSERT_IP ADDRESS>


Starting Nmap 7.01 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2018-07-10 13:55 UTC Nmap scan report for <INSERT_IP ADDRESS> Host is up (0.00085s latency). Not shown: 996 closed ports PORT STATE SERVICE 22/tcp open ssh 80/tcp open http 443/tcp open https 5900/tcp open vnc Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 1.77 seconds


Next, use nmap to check for a "clean slate" Bare Metal Server. The results will show the host as being down (due to no OS).

# nmap -sS 192.168.2.42
 
Starting Nmap 7.01 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2018-07-10 13:55 UTC
Note: Host seems down. If it is really up, but blocking our ping probes, try -Pn
Nmap done: 1 IP address (0 hosts up) scanned in 0.63 seconds


Verification of the Build Server and Bare Metal Server primary networks is beyond the scope of this guide.
