NAME

nutscan_scan_ipmi - Scan local IPMI devices.

SYNOPSIS

Note
Two NUT websites

This version of the page reflects NUT release v2.8.1 with codebase commited 4ba352d8f at 2023-10-31T21:46:20+01:00

Options, features and capabilities in current development (and future releases) are detailed on the main site and may differ from ones described here.

 
#include <nut-scan.h>
nutscan_device_t * nutscan_scan_ipmi(
      const char * startIP,
      const char * stopIP,
      nutscan_ipmi_t * sec);

DESCRIPTION

The nutscan_scan_ipmi() function tries to detect IPMI manageable devices.

If start_ip is NULL, the function searches for a local PSU.

Otherwise, it searches for remote hosts that would serve IPMI protocols, and would try to authenticate using the data in sec structure. It issues a NUT request on every IP ranging from startIP to stopIP, where stopIP is optional. Those IP arguments may be either IPv4 or IPv6 addresses or host names.

You MUST call nutscan_init(3) before using this function.

BUGS

Design or implementation of this function may be incomplete: until recently, this man page stated that it was not implemented yet. Source code is present, although some blocks are commented away or hidden with #if 0.

RETURN VALUE

The nutscan_scan_ipmi() function is not implemented yet.
