IPMB addresses, logical and physical slot numbers, and FRU ids
The shelf manager manages the chassis over the Intelligent Platform Management Bus
(IPMB). All of the chassis slots have IPMB addresses (as well as hardware addresses) on
this bus. When you enter shelf manager CLI commands you indicate chassis slot numbers
according to their IPMB addresses. The IPMB and hardware addresses are in
hexadecimal format.
Boards installed in chassis slots are called
field replaceable units
(FRUs). Many CLI
commands also require referencing a FRU. In most cases if a board is installed in a slot
the slot will have one FRU with an ID of FRU 0. However, if a FortiGate-5001A board is
installed in a slot with an AMC module, this slot has two FRUs (FRU 0 and FRU 1).
For example, a FortiGate-5001A board with an AMC module is installed in logical slot 4,
then at IPMB address 88, there will be FRU 0 (the FortiGate-5001A board) and FRU 1 (the
AMC module).
