Output looks strange, Interface Type and Spec Version are not defined. Here is an output from an Intel board: IPMI Device Information Interface Type: KCS (Keyboard Control Style) Specification Version: 2.0 I2C Slave Address: 0x10 NV Storage Device: Not Present Base Address: 0x0000000000000CA2 (I/O) Register Spacing: Successive Byte Boundaries AFAIK, Supermicro boards support IPMI with an addon cards. Is such a card present on your system? If so, maybe firmware upgrade will help.
