I would argue it should be system/ipmievd:default. IPMI has
nothing to do with networking, other than it can use a network
as a transport. But it isn't a network service.

Yes, the FMRI goes in the man page. For example, for fmd(1M) you see
some text like this under NOTES:
The Fault Manager is managed by the service management
facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:
svc:/system/fmd:default
The service's status can be queried using the svcs(1) com-
mand. Administrators should not disable the Fault Manager
service.

The stability values used by smf(5) are the attributes(5) values, which
are the stable tokens that pre-date the recent decision to use a different
set of tokens in our internal ARC paperwork. You should use External
or Unstable instead.
