Thanks for the support.

I am sorry to reach out so many years later but I am at my wit's end.  I have a UCS Cisco C200 M2 that I got without any information on the CIMC IP address.  With that I cannot boot using the F8 key so I can change the IP address, I cannot use any Funtion Key to stop the boot so I can get to an alternate boot screen... so I was trying this installation if IPMITool but CENTOS 7 is loaded on this server and since it is not supported anymore I cannot do am YUM install since the mirrolist are all gone.  

Is there ANY OTHER way to find the IP address set for this CIMC?  OR Is there a means to do a factory reset to default WITHOUT the CIMC?  I am just not sure what to do since I have plans for this server.  It is powerful I just cannot get this old build off of it.

You can `yum install` by mounting the installation media `mount /dev/cdrom /mnt` and editing a few files or simply fall back to using `rpm` like `rpm -i /mnt/path/to/ipmitool.*.rpm`.
