OpenIPMI                                            06/26/12                                          ipmilan(8)

       Configuration is accomplished through the file /etc/ipmi_lan.conf.  A file with another name or path  may
       be specified using the -c option.  See the ipmi_lan config file man page for more details.

       The  ipmilan daemon allows an IPMI system interface using the OpenIPMI device driver to be accessed using
       the IPMI 1.5 or 2.0 LAN protocol.

       ipmilan supports the full authentication capabilities of the IPMI LAN protocol.

       ipmilan supports multiple IP addresses for fault-tolerance.  Note that messages coming in on  an  address
       are always sent back out on the same address they came in.

       At startup, all error output goes to stderr.  After that, all error output goes to syslog.

       Currently,  ipmilan  does  not  implement writing the config file.  IPMI commands to change configuration
       options are accepted, but the permanent writing of the changes does not currently work.

-cconfig-file
              Set the configuration file to one other than the default of /etc/ipmi_lan.conf-n     Stops   the   daemon  from  forking  and  detaching  from the controlling terminal. This is useful
              for running from init.

       -d     Turns on debugging to standard output.  You generally have to use -n with this.

ipmilan  implements  normal IPMI security.  The default is no access for anyone, so the default is pretty
       safe, but be careful what you add, because this is  access  to  control  your  box.   straight  and  none
       authorizations are not recommended, you should probably stick with md2 or md5.

SIGHUPipmilan  should  handle  SIGHUP and reread it's configuration files.  However, it doesn't right now.
            It might in the future, for now you will have to kill it and  restart  it.   Clients  should  handle
            reconnecting in this case.  If they don't, they are broken.
