+.SH "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 \fIOpenIPMI\fP and it is included in standard distributions.
+On Solaris this driver is called \fIBMC\fP 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.

+If no password method is specified then ipmitool will prompt the
+user for a password. If no password is entered at the prompt,
+the remote server password will default to NULL.
+.SH "SECURITY"
+There are several security issues be be considered before enabling the
+IPMI LAN interface. A remote station has the ability to control a system's power
+state as well as being able to gather certain platform information. To reduce
+vulnerability it is strongly advised that the IPMI LAN interface only be
+enabled in 'trusted' environments where system security is not an issue or
+where there is a dedicated secure 'management network'.
+
+Further it is strongly advised that you should not enable IPMI for
+remote access without setting a password, and that that password should
+not be the same as any other password on that system.
+
+When an IPMI password is changed on a remote machine with the IPMIv1.5
+\fIlan\fP interface the new password is sent across the network
+as clear text. This could be observed and then used to attack the remote
+system. It is thus recommended that IPMI password management only be done
+over IPMIv2.0 \fIlanplus\fP interface or the system interface on the
+local station.
+
+For IPMI v1.5, the maximum password length is 16 characters.
+Passwords longer than 16 characters will be truncated.
+
+For IPMI v2.0, the maximum password length is 20 characters;
+longer passwords are truncated.
+.SH "COMMANDS"
+.TP

+kernel patches for different kernel versions available from
+the OpenIPMI homepage.
+

+.TP
+.B ipmi_msghandler
+Incoming and outgoing message handler for IPMI interfaces.
+.TP
+.B ipmi_kcs_drv
+An IPMI Keyboard Controler Style (KCS) interface driver for the message handler.
+.TP
+.B ipmi_devintf

+.TP
+.B ipmi_msghandler

+.TP
+.B ipmi_si
+An IPMI system interface driver for the message handler.
+This module supports various IPMI system interfaces such
+as KCS, BT, SMIC, and even SMBus in 2.6 kernels.
+.TP
+.B ipmi_devintf
+Linux character device interface for the message handler.
+.LP
+Once the required modules are loaded there will be a dynamic
+character device entry that must exist at \fB/dev/ipmi0\fR.
+For systems that use devfs or udev this will appear at
+\fB/dev/ipmi/0\fR.
+
+To create the device node first determine what dynamic major
+number it was assigned by the kernel by looking in
+\fB/proc/devices\fR and checking for the \fIipmidev\fP
+entry. Usually if this is the first dynamic device it will
+be major number \fB254\fR and the minor number for the first
+system interface is \fB0\fR so you would create the device
+entry with:
+
+.I mknod /dev/ipmi0 c 254 0
+
+ipmitool includes some sample initialization scripts that
+can perform this task automatically at start\-up.

+ipmitool \fB\-I\fR \fIlipmi\fP <\fIexpression\fP>
+.SH "LAN INTERFACE"
+The ipmitool \fIlan\fP interface communicates with the BMC
+over an Ethernet LAN connection using UDP under IPv4. UDP
+datagrams are formatted to contain IPMI request/response
+messages with a IPMI session headers and RMCP headers.
+
+IPMI\-over\-LAN uses version 1 of the Remote Management Control
+Protocol (RMCP) to support pre\-OS and OS\-absent management.
+RMCP is a request\-response protocol delivered using UDP
+datagrams to port 623.
+
+The LAN interface is an authentication multi\-session connection;
+messages delivered to the BMC can (and should) be authenticated
+with a challenge/response protocol with either straight
+password/key or MD5 message\-digest algorithm. ipmitool will
+attempt to connect with administrator privilege level as this
+is required to perform chassis power functions.
+
+You can tell ipmitool to use the lan interface with the
+\fB\-I\fR \fIlan\fP option:
+
+.PP
+ipmitool \fB\-I\fR \fIlan\fP \fB\-H\fR <\fIhostname\fP>
+[\fB\-U\fR <\fIusername\fP>] [\fB\-P\fR <\fIpassword\fP>] <\fIcommand\fP>
+
+A hostname must be given on the command line in order to use the
+lan interface with ipmitool. The password field is optional;
+if you do not provide a password on the command line, ipmitool
+will attempt to connect without authentication. If you specify a
+password it will use MD5 authentication if supported by the BMC
+and straight password/key otherwise, unless overridden with a
+command line option.
+.SH "LANPLUS INTERFACE"
+Like the \fIlan\fP interface, the \fIlanplus\fP interface
+communicates with the BMC over an Ethernet LAN connection using
+UDP under IPv4. The difference is that the \fIlanplus\fP
+interface uses the RMCP+ protocol as described in the IPMI v2.0
+specification. RMCP+ allows for improved authentication and data
+integrity checks, as well as encryption and the ability to carry
+multiple types of payloads. Generic Serial Over LAN support
+requires RMCP+, so the ipmitool \fIsol activate\fP command
+requires the use of the \fIlanplus\fP interface.
+
+RMCP+ session establishment uses a symmetric challenge\-response
+protocol called RAKP (\fBRemote Authenticated Key\-Exchange Protocol\fR)
+which allows the negotiation of many options. ipmitool does not
+yet allow the user to specify the value of every option, defaulting
+to the most obvious settings marked as required in the v2.0
+specification. Authentication and integrity HMACS are produced with
+SHA1, and encryption is performed with AES\-CBC\-128. Role\-level logins
+are not yet supported.
+
+ipmitool must be linked with the \fIOpenSSL\fP library in order to
+perform the encryption functions and support the \fIlanplus\fP
+interface. If the required packages are not found it will not be
+compiled in and supported.
+
+You can tell ipmitool to use the lanplus interface with the
+\fB\-I\fR \fIlanplus\fP option:
+
+.PP
+ipmitool \fB\-I\fR \fIlanplus\fP
+\fB\-H\fR <\fIhostname\fP>
+[\fB\-U\fR <\fIusername\fP>]
+[\fB\-P\fR <\fIpassword\fP>]
+<\fIcommand\fP>
+
+A hostname must be given on the command line in order to use the
+lan interface with ipmitool. With the exception of the \fB\-A\fR and
+\fB\-C\fR options the rest of the command line options are identical to
+those available for the \fIlan\fP interface.
+
+The \fB\-C\fR option allows you specify the authentication, integrity,
+and encryption algorithms to use for for \fIlanplus\fP session based
+on the cipher suite ID found in the IPMIv2.0 specification in table
+22\-19. The default cipher suite is \fI3\fP which specifies
+RAKP\-HMAC\-SHA1 authentication, HMAC\-SHA1\-96 integrity, and AES\-CBC\-128
