BMC access is always possible over a shell on the same machine. This means issuing ipmitool lan print on openqaw5-xen shows you the currently configured lan settings (e.g. mac, current dhcp address, etc). Example:

openqaw5-xen:~ # ipmitool lan print

However, IPMI access is now statically configured and the machine can be accessed over sp.openqaw5-xen.qa.suse.de.

@nicksinger, Thank you very much for the setup. I can successfully connected to its web ipmi control page.

Note: the jave sol console is black because the xen host serial console setting is incorrect. I will update that when remote ipmi control is needed when the host encounter issues and needs remote recovery.
