Supermicro S2000 series Atom with Marvel Alaskan nics

Bluedog
I am looking into this server, anyone test it out yet with a Sophos UTM? Wondering how Sophos UTM likes the Marvel Alaskan nics?

    Hi, 

    Glad to hear it's working. Any SpeedTest.net results yet?

    IPMI is for remote management of the motherboard, and sometimes it offers a IP KVM feature as well.

    I'm not sure what you mean about installing an ISO.

    Anyways, if the IPMI NIC is not plugged into anything, and you did not re-map IPMI to the WAN interface, then there's no security risk.
    It would also be safe to configure it, put in a password, and connect it your your LAN or DMZ.
