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?)
