Hi all,

I have just configured out of band IPMI(v2) management on some Ubuntu 20.04 
Hosts, which is handy as it lets root admins power-cycle hosts and see their 
power state etc. from within the CloudStack webUI.

Is it possible to configure encrypted IPMI traffic in cloudstack? The only 
options I have in 'Configure Out-of-band Management' are:

Address: 10.250.x.x
Port: 623
Username: <ILO username>
Password: <ILO password>
Driver: ipmitool

The above settings do work well, but the traffic is not encrypted.

I also see that both DELL and CloudStack support Redfish. Is this perhaps the 
best way forward?


Anyone have any experience of this? Thanks, Jim
