Abstract
Embodiments provide a proxy between device management messaging protocols that are used to manage devices that are I2C bus endpoints coupled to a remote access controller. A map is generated of the detected I2C bus endpoints. Mapped I2C bus endpoints that support PLDM (Platform Level Data Model) messaging are identified. Next, the mapped I2C bus endpoints that do not correspond to an identified PLDM endpoint are presumed to be IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) endpoints and are mapped accordingly. A virtual PLDM endpoint for each of the presumed IPMI I2C bus endpoints. A remote access controller is configured for use of PLDM messaging with the virtual PLDM endpoints such that these PLDM messages are translated by the proxy to equivalent IPMI commands and transmitted to the IPMI endpoints. The proxy similarly converts IPMI messages from the IPMI endpoints to equivalent PLDM messages and provided to the remote access controller via the virtual PLDM endpoint.
