DESCRIPTION   

This   program   lets   you   manage   Intelligent   Platform   Management   Interface   (IPMI)   functions   of   either   the   local   system,   via   
a   kernel   device   driver,   or   a   remote   system,   using   IPMI   V1.5   and   IPMI   v2.0.   These   functions   include   printing   FRU   
information,   LAN   configuration,   sensor   readings,   and   remote   chassis   power   control.      
IPMI   management   of   a   local   system   interface   requires   a   compatible   IPMI   kernel   driver   to   be   installed   and   configured.   On   
Linux,   this   driver   is   called   

OpenIPMI

   and   it   is   included   in   standard   distributions.   On   Solaris,   this   driver   is   called   

BMC

   and   is   

inclued   in   Solaris   10.   Management   of   a   remote   station   requires   the   IPMI-­‐over-­‐LAN   interface   to   be   enabled   and   
configured.   Depending   on   the   particular   requirements   of   each   system,   it   may   be   possible   to   enable   the   LAN   interface   
using   

ipmitool

   over   the   system   interface.            

OPTIONS   
-­‐a

      

Prompt   for   the   remote   server   password.      

-­‐A

   <

authtype

>      

Specify   an   authentication   type   to   use   during   IPMIv1.5   

lan

   session   activation.   Supported   types   are   NONE,   

PASSWORD,   MD5,   or   OEM.      

-­‐c

ciphersuite

>      

The   remote   server   authentication,   integrity,   and   encryption   algorithms   to   use   for   IPMIv2   

lanplus

   connections.   

See   table   22-­‐19   in   the   IPMIv2   specification.   The   default   is   3   which   specifies   RAKP-­‐HMAC-­‐SHA1   authentication,   
HMAC-­‐SHA1-­‐96   integrity,   and   AES-­‐CBC-­‐128   encryption   algorightms.      

-­‐E

      

The   remote   server   password   is   specified   by   the   environment   variable   

IPMI_PASSWORD

.      

-­‐f

   <

password_file

>      

Specifies   a   file   containing   the   remote   server   password.   If   this   option   is   absent,   or   if   password_file   is   empty,   the   
password   will   default   to   NULL.      

-­‐h

      

Get   basic   usage   help   from   the   command   line.      

-­‐H

   <

address

>      

Remote   server   address,   can   be   IP   address   or   hostname.   This   option   is   required   for   

lan

   and   

lanplus

   interfaces.      

-­‐I

   <

interface

>      

Selects   IPMI   interface   to   use.   Supported   interfaces   that   are   compiled   in   are   visible   in   the   usage   help   output.      

-­‐L

   <

privlvl

>      

Force   session   privilege   level.   Can   be   CALLBACK,   USER,   OPERATOR,   ADMIN.   Default   is   ADMIN.      

-­‐m

   <

local_address

>      

Set   the   local   IPMB   address.   The   default   is   0x20   and   there   should   be   no   need   to   change   it   for   normal   operation.
