Abstract
An information handling system includes a host, an intelligent peripheral connected to the host, and a baseboard management controller. The host includes a memory and a central processing unit. The intelligent peripheral is configured to communicate with the baseboard management controller to obtain configuration information, and provide networking services to the host after configuration. The baseboard management controller is configured to communicate with a management network; establish a communication channel with the intelligent peripheral independent of the host system; obtain configuration information for the intelligent peripheral from the management network; and provide the configuration information to the intelligent peripheral.
