Yeah, there is a default setting in the Firmware of “failover” which means
“use dedicated IPMI port if connected otherwise use shared LAN port”

This is under IPMI -> BMC Network Configuration
see also https://serverfault.com/questions/361940/configuring-supermicro-ipmi-to-use-one-of-the-lan-interfaces-instead-of-the-ipmi

But, is this kind of traffic supposed to be visible to the linux kernel?
(or was the tcpdump made on another machine?)
