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 included 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

Present output in CSV (comma separated variable) format. This is not available with all
commands.

-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.
