A communication method enabling a local area network, LAN, console outside of a multi-node chassis communicate with a plurality of nodes within the multi-node chassis , the plurality of nodes being connected to a chassis management controller , characterized in comprising the following steps of: designating, among the plurality of nodes , a communication node of the multi-node chassis , the communication node having a BMC IP address representing the multi-node chassis and is in communication with the LAN console ; receiving, by the communication node , a first communication request from the LAN console to a target node (406, 506, BMC 8) among the plurality of nodes , the first communication request including a data request, the BMC IP address, a BMC ID address representing the target node (406, 506, BMC 8) and being identified by the chassis management controller , a channel number, a bridge address and/or a command; transmitting, by the communication node , a second communication request to the chassis management controller , the second communication request including the data request, the BMC ID address, the channel number, the bridge address and/or the command contained in the first communication request ; identifying, by the chassis management controller , the target node (406, 506, BMC 8) according to the BMC ID address and sending a third communication request to the target node (406, 506 BMC 8), the third communication request including the data request, the channel number, the bridge address and/or the command contained in the second communication request ; receiving, by the target node (406, 506, BMC 8), the third communication request , and sending a first response in according with the third communication request back to the chassis management controller ; sending, by the chassis management controller , a second response to the communication node , the second response including information contained in the first response ; and sending, by the communication node , a third response to the LAN console , the third response including information contained in the second response . designating, among the plurality of nodes , a communication node of the multi-node chassis , the communication node having a BMC IP address representing the multi-node chassis and is in communication with the LAN console ; receiving, by the communication node , a first communication request from the LAN console to a target node (406, 506, BMC 8) among the plurality of nodes , the first communication request including a data request, the BMC IP address, a BMC ID address representing the target node (406, 506, BMC 8) and being identified by the chassis management controller , a channel number, a bridge address and/or a command; transmitting, by the communication node , a second communication request to the chassis management controller , the second communication request including the data request, the BMC ID address, the channel number, the bridge address and/or the command contained in the first communication request ; identifying, by the chassis management controller , the target node (406, 506, BMC 8) according to the BMC ID address and sending a third communication request to the target node (406, 506 BMC 8), the third communication request including the data request, the channel number, the bridge address and/or the command contained in the second communication request ; receiving, by the target node (406, 506, BMC 8), the third communication request , and sending a first response in according with the third communication request back to the chassis management controller ; sending, by the chassis management controller , a second response to the communication node , the second response including information contained in the first response ; and sending, by the communication node , a third response to the LAN console , the third response including information contained in the second response . <EOS>
