Method and a system for sideband server management

A server management board for sideband server management, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, wherein the memory stores processor-executable instructions, which, on execution, causes the processor to:
• receive a management request from a client device wherein the management request is targeted to remotely manage a predefined server among plurality of servers, and wherein the management request comprises at least one internet protocol packet indicating a connection port and protocol specific information of the predefined server;
• convert the at least one internet protocol packet to at least one Bluetooth protocol packet;
• identify a channel to deliver the at least one Bluetooth protocol packet to the predefined server based on a routing table,
• wherein the routing table defines a master Bluetooth module from one or more master Bluetooth modules of the server management board and a corresponding slave Bluetooth module of the predefined server, pertaining to the connection port and the protocol specific information in the management request, and
• wherein the master Bluetooth module corresponds to the predefined server;
• and
• transmit the at least one Bluetooth protocol packet from the master Bluetooth module to the corresponding slave Bluetooth module of the predefined server using the identified channel,
• convert the at least one Bluetooth protocol packet to the at least one internet protocol packet;
• and
• transmit the at least one internet protocol packet to a sideband module configured in the predefined server to execute the management request,
• wherein the plurality of servers is configured in a server rack.
