   Redfish is a new implementation supported by the big vendors which provides 
a HTTP REST API to control servers.
   
   <pre>
   DMTF’s Redfish® is a standard designed to deliver simple and secure 
management for converged, hybrid IT and the Software Defined Data Center 
(SDDC). Both human readable and machine capable, Redfish leverages common 
Internet and web services standards to expose information directly to the 
modern tool chain.

   - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redfish_(specification)
   
   The follow manufacturers support Redfish in their OOB solutions:
   
   - Dell's iDRAC
   - HPE's ILO
   - SuperMicro's IPMI (>X10 generation)
   
   By supporting Redfish we can support the latest generation of hardware and 
specifications for the OOB management of Hosts.
   
   There is no need to use 'ipmitool' as Redfish are just HTTP calls which need 
to be send to the server's OOB system to reboot the Host when needed.
