How to create a Dynamic Credentails?

Advantech products (SKY/FWA/ATCA/MIC) that support HPM could support this feature. Default Advantech BMC user is the administrator, please refer to the corresponding document to get the password. This guide will show how to create temporary users.

How to create:

• Download the attachment into x86 OS (Linux)
• Enter command "vim" to modify the script for setting "session timeout", and enter :wq to save the setting.

# vim gdc.sh

# Session Timeout for the remote session in seconds (currently 5 seconds)
gdc_timeout_b0="0x32" #LSB
gdc_timeout_b1="0x00"
gdc_timeout_b2="0x00"
gdc_timeout_b3="0x00" #MSB

• Run the script with IPMB address for which node/device needs dynamic credentials.

# ./gdc.sh 0x82
