Abstract
In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be an embedded-system device. The embedded-system device receives at least one IPMI message from a client device. The embedded-system device extracts message data from the at least one IPMI message. The embedded-system device determines, from the message data, a function call including at least one operation code and for processing a data collection. The embedded-system device processes the data collection based on the at least one operation code. The disclosure describes a common implementation of data transfer and usage that can serve different clients as well as future features with zero or minimum redesign or redevelopment.
