- Remote Control: Full KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) over IP, allowing administrators to see the BIOS POST screen and GUI of the OS.
- Remote Media: Ability to mount local ISO images or physical drives over the network to the remote server (essential for OS installations without physical access).
- Storage Management: Integrated RAID management via the iRMC interface.
- Automation: Enhanced API access often utilized in DevOps pipelines (Redfish).
