It cant be the same.

Have you configured all network options on ipmitool lan ?

[root at athos ~]# ipmitool lan print 1
IP
Address
: 172.16.1.101
Subnet
Mask
: 255.255.255.0

And you need to create a user with ADMINISTRATOR rights:
[root at athos ~]# ipmitool user list 1
ID
Name
Callin  Link Auth  IPMI Msg   Channel Priv Limit
1
true    false
true       ADMINISTRATOR
2
root
true    true
true       ADMINISTRATOR


And (i think) you cant ping your LOCAL ipmi address, but you can ping
a remote one.

[root at athos ~]# ping -I bond0 172.16.1.102
PING 172.16.1.102 (172.16.1.102) from 172.16.1.1 bond0: 56(84) bytes of
data.
64 bytes from 172.16.1.102: icmp_seq=1 ttl=128 time=72.6 ms


Hope its help.
