|Full description='''FreeIPMI''' is a collection of in-band and out-of-band IPMI software in accordance with the IPMI v1.5/2.0 specification. These programs provide a set of interfaces for platform management. Common functionality includes sensor monitoring, system event monitoring, power control and serial-over-LAN.
* Libfreeipmi - A C library that includes KCS, SSIF, and OpenIPMI drivers, IPMI 1.5 and IPMI 2.0 LAN communication interfaces, IPMI packet building utilities, IPMI command utilities, and utilities for reading/interpreting/managing IPMI.

|Homepage URL=https://www.gnu.org/software/freeipmi/
* Bmc-info - A tool to read information about the local BMC such as version information and device support.
+
|Is High Priority Project=No
* Bmc-config - A tool to configure usernames, passwords, networking information, security, and other relevant IPMI configuration fields.
+
|VCS checkout command=git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/freeipmi.git
* Bmc-watchdog - A tool/daemon to manage a BMC Watchdog. This tool is typically used for system timeout management and automatic system restarts in the event of a system crash.

 +
* ipmiseld: a daemon that regularly polls the SEL and stores the events to the local syslog.
 +
 
 +
Additional information, examples, and general trouble-shooting can be found in each of the tool manpages.
 +
 
 +
=== Project Libraries ===
 +
 
 +
The following libraries are distributed and supported by FreeIPMI.
 +
 
 +
* libfreeipmi: a C library that includes KCS, SSIF, OpenIPMI Linux, and Solaris BMC drivers, IPMI 1.5 and IPMI 2.0 LAN communication interfaces, IPMI packet building utilities, IPMI command utilities, and utilities for reading/interpreting/managing IPMI.  This library is for programmers intimately familiar with the IPMI protocol and IPMI specification.
 +
 
 +
Most users may wish to use the libraries listed below.
 +
 
 +
* libipmiconsole: a library for Serial-over-Lan (SOL) console access.  SOL console access is abstracted into a file descriptor interface, so users may read and write console data through a file descriptor.
 +
* libipmimonitoring: a library for sensor and system event log (SEL) monitoring that abstracts away most IPMI details.  Interpretation of those sensors and events is abstracted into an API with an iterator interface.
 +
* libipmidetect: a library for IPMI node detection.
