Abstract: A Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) that may configure itself is disclosed. The BMC may include an access logic to determine a configuration of a chassis that includes the BMC. The BMC may also include a built-in self-configuration logic to configure the BMC responsive to the configuration of the chassis. The BMC may self-configure without using any BIOS, device drivers, or operating systems.

Abstract: A system and a method to detect malicious software written to an Ethernet solid-state drive (eSSD). The system includes an Ethernet switch, at least one SSD, and a baseboard management controller (BMC). The Ethernet switch receives write data from a communication network in response to a write command. The at least one SSD receives the write data from the Ethernet switch and stores the received write data. The BMC receives from the at least one SSD the received write data. The BMC determines whether the received write data contains malicious software. The received write data may be contained in a plurality of Ethernet packets in which case the BMC stores the received write data in a scan buffer in an order that is based on an assembled order of the received write data.

Abstract: A data storage system includes: a plurality of Ethernet solid-state drive (SSD) chassis including at least one switching Ethernet SSD chassis and one or more switchless Ethernet SSD chassis. The at least one switching Ethernet SSD chassis comprises an Ethernet switch, a first baseboard management controller (BMC), and a first management local area network (LAN) port. At least one of the one or more switchless Ethernet SSD chassis comprises an Ethernet repeater, a second BMC, and a second management LAN port. The first management LAN port of the at least one switching Ethernet SSD chassis and the second management LAN port are connected. The first BMC collects status of the at least one of the one or more switches Ethernet SSD chassis from the second BMC via a connection between the first management LAN port and the second management LAN port and provide device information of the at least one of the one or more switches Ethernet SSD chassis and the at least one switching Ethernet SSD chassis to a system administrator.

Abstract: According to one general aspect, a device may include a host interface circuit configured to communicate with a host device via a data protocol that employs data messages. The device may include a storage element configured to store data in response to a data message. The host interface circuit may be configured to detect when a tunneling command is embedded within the data message; extract a tunneled message address information from the data message; retrieve, via the tunneled message address information, a tunneled message stored in a memory of the host device; and route the tunneled message to an on-board processor and/or data processing logic. The on-board processor and/or data processing logic may be configured to execute one or more instructions in response to the tunneled message.
