- Have you checked if your motherboard IPMI is not pulling an address
during boot? -- Frankly, not sure how to check motherboard IPMI messages. Verified dmesg output. Following is the dmesg output. Please share any way to check motherboard IPMI is pulling another address?
well, first, does your motherboard *HAVE* an IPMI management module, and if so, does it use a dedicated ethernet port, or is it 'piggybacked' on eth0 ? the behavior shown could be the latter.
I'd look in the system or motherboard documentation for this... depending on the IPMI module, it may have a web or ssh interface, or it may require another system contact it via an 'ipmitool' of some sort. It probably has an initial user/pass like admin/admin which should be reconfigured during system configuration and deployment.
