-.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 by a remote station is disabled on platforms as they 
-are shipped. It can be enabled only by the root user on the local system.
-
-.SH SECURITY WARNING
-There are several security issues to 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 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 using a tool, such as 'ipmitool', running
-on the local station.
-        	  
-.SH OPTIONS
-.TP 
-\-a
-Prompt for the remote server password.
-.TP 
-\-A <authtype>
-Specify an authentication type to use during IPMIv1.5 lan
-session activation.  Supported types are NONE, PASSWORD, MD2, MD5, or OEM.
-.TP 
-\-c
-Present output in CSV (comma separated variable) format.  
-This is not available with all commands.
-.TP
-\-e <sol_escape_char>
-Use supplied character for SOL session escape character.  The default
-is to use ~ but this can conflict with ssh sessions.
-.TP
-\-k <key>
-Use supplied Kg key for IPMIv2 authentication.  The default is not to
-use any Kg key.
-.TP
-\-y <hex key>
-Use supplied Kg key for IPMIv2 authentication. The key is expected in
-hexadecimal format and can be used to specify keys with non-printable
-characters. E.g. '-k PASSWORD' and '-y 50415353574F5244' are
-equivalent.
-The default is not to use any Kg key.
-.TP 
-\-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.
-.TP 
-\-E
-The remote server password is specified by the environment
-variable IPMI_PASSWORD.
-.TP 
-\-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.
-
-If the \-f option is not present, ipmitool will prompt the
-user for a password. If no password is entered at the prompt,
-the remote server password will default to NULL.
-
-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.
-The longer password length is supported by the lanplus interface.
-.TP 
-\-h
-Get basic usage help from the command line.
-.TP 
-\-H <address>
-Remote server address, can be IP address or hostname.  This 
-option is required for lan and lanplus interfaces.
-.TP 
-\-I <interface>
-Selects IPMI interface to use.  Supported interfaces that are
-compiled in are visible in the usage help output.
-.TP 
-\-L <privlvl>
-Force session privilege level.  Can be CALLBACK, USER,
-OPERATOR, ADMINISTRATOR. Default is ADMINISTRATOR.
-.TP 
-\-m <local_address>
-Set the local IPMB address.  The default is 0x20 and there
-should be no need to change it for normal operation.
-.TP 
-\-o <oemtype>
-Select OEM type to support.  This usually involves minor hacks
-in place in the code to work around quirks in various BMCs from
-various manufacturers.  Use \-o list to see a list of
-current supported OEM types.
-.TP 
-\-O <sel oem>
-Open selected file and read OEM SEL event descriptions to be used
-during SEL listings.  See examples in contrib dir for file format.
-.TP
-\-p <port>
-Remote server UDP port to connect to.  Default is 623.
-.TP 
-\-P <password>
-Remote server password is specified on the command line.
-If supported it will be obscured in the process list. 
-Note! Specifying the password as a command line
-option is not recommended.
-.TP 
-\-S <sdr_cache_file>
-Use Sensor Data Repository information from local file 
-<sdr_cache_file> for remote SDR cache.  Using a local SDR cache
-can drastically increase performance for commands that require
-knowledge of the entire SDR to perform their function.  Local
-SDR cache from a remote system can be created with the
-`sdr dump <sdr_cache_file>` command.
-.TP 
-\-t <target_address>
-Bridge IPMI requests to the remote target address.
-.TP 
-\-U <username>
-Remote server username, default is NULL user.
-.TP
-\-d N
-Use device number N to specify the /dev/ipmiN (or 
-/dev/ipmi/N or /dev/ipmidev/N) device to use for in-band 
-BMC communication.  Used to target a specific BMC on a 
-multi-node, multi-BMC system through the ipmi device 
-driver interface.  Default is 0.
-.TP 
-\-v
-Increase verbose output level.  This option may be specified
-multiple times to increase the level of debug output.  If given
-three times you will get hexdumps of all incoming and
-outgoing packets.
-.TP 
-\-V
-Display version information.
-
-.LP 
-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 COMMANDS
-.TP

-.SH BMC INTERFACE
-The ipmitool bmc interface utilizes the bmc device driver.
-     
-In order to force ipmitool to make use of the device interface
-you can specify it on the command line:
-
-ipmitool \-I bmc <command>
-
-.SH LAN INTERFACE
-The ipmitool lan interface communicates with a remote BMC over an
-Ethernet LAN connection using UDP over IPv4.  UDP datagrams
-are formatted to contain IPMI request/response messages with
-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 authenticated multi\-session connection;
-messages  delivered  to  the  BMC can (and should) be
-authenticate with a challenge/response protocol with either
-straight   password/key  or  MD5  message\-digest.
-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  \-I
-option:
-
-ipmitool \-I lan \-H <hostname> [\-f password_file] <command>
-
-A hostname must be given on the command line in order to use
-the  lan  interface  with 'ipmitool'.   The \fIpassword_file\fR
-is optional but, if present, should contain the password to be
-used for authentication.  If no password is given, ipmitool will
-attempt to connect without authentication.
-
-If \fIpassword_file\fR is present and non\-empty ipmitool will
-attempt to authenticate with an MD5 message-digest if MD5 is 
-supported by the BMC.  If MD5 is not supported by the BMC,
-straight password/key authentication will be attempted.
-
-.SH LANPLUS INTERFACE
-
-.LP
-Like the \fIlan\fP interface, the \fIlanplus\fP interface
-communicates with the BMC over an Ethernet LAN connection
-using UDP over 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.
-.LP
-Establishing a RMCP+ session uses RAKP (Remote
-Authenticated Key-Exchange Protocol), which enables the negotiation of
-many options.  ipmitool does not yet allow the user to specify
-values for all the options, defaulting to the most obvious settings for those
-settings marked as required in the v2.0 specification.  Authentication and integrity 
-HMACs use the SHA-1 algorithm, and encryption is performed with AES, in CBC mode,
-at 128-bits of strength. Role-level logins are not supported.  ipmitool must
-be configured with the appropriate option for the \fIlanplus\fP interface
-to be available, as it is not enabled by default.  This interface currently
-requires the OpenSSL library.
-.LP
-You can tell ipmitool to use the lanplus interface with the \fB\-I\fR option:
-.PP
-ipmitool \-I lanplus \-H <hostname> [\-U username] [\-f password_file] <expression>
-.LP
-The options available for the \fIlanplus\fP interface are identical to those available for
- the \fIlan\fP interface.
-
-.SH EXIT STATUS
-
-Upon successful completion, ipmitool returns 0.  On failure, 1 is returned.

-.SH NOTES
-IPMI V1.5 and, at the time of writing, IPMI V2.X only support IPv4. 
-There is no requirement for a BMC to use the same IP address as its 
-host system. In an IPv6 environment the host system can have an IPv6
-address and  'ipmitool' can be used to assign an IPv4 address to the
-BMC.
