What do you think about HPE iLO?

What do you think about iLO? Have you ever used it? I am just curious as I use it extensively, but I don't know if everyone likes it as much as I do.

I find it cool that you can add iLO to the HP Microserver. That is unique.

What I find interesting is that most server board manufacturers seems to have standardized on Redfish.

My microserver has iLO and a serial port! I don't even know where you'd get a terminal.

I don't even know where you'd get a terminal.

Most BMC use web based interface. Terminal is used at OS level with IPMI.

Start an nmap search and look at the devices. I don't know if they share over ethernet or serial. Also serial over LAN is a thing for OOB managment.
