What is the HP Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) Windows Driver?
The HP Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) is a specialized microcontroller embedded on HP servers' motherboards. It is part of the HP Integrated Lights-Out (iLO) management solution, which allows administrators to monitor and manage a server remotely, even when the server is powered off or the operating system is not running.
The Windows driver for the HP Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) is software that allows the operating system (Windows) to communicate with the hardware of the BMC, enabling features such as remote management, power control, hardware monitoring (e.g., temperature, voltage, fan speeds), and system event logging.
