For that reason, IPMI ports need to be at _least_ confined by VLAN
tagging to a special service network with no direct public access
whatsoever, if not physically separate.  Have mandatory VPN access
controls to get to that network, and watch it like a hawk.  Never, ever
let those ports be public-facing.
