While you may prefer a GUI-based application like Dell Management
Console on your Windows systems, the ipmiutil package is another command
line alternative to ipmitools that provides more functionality, and runs
on Windows.  You can get it at http://ipmiutil.sourceforge.net/ - while
not as pretty as the Dell Management Console, it is useful if you want
to implement any kind of scripting or automation.
