NAME

       ipmiutil_firewall - configure the IPMI firmware firewall functions

SYNOPSIS

       ipmiutil firewall [-mxNUPREFJTVY] parameters

DESCRIPTION

       This  ipmiutil firewall command supports the IPMI Firmware Firewall capability.  It may be
       used to add  or  remove  security-based  restrictions  on  certain  commands/command  sub-
       functions  or to list the current firmware firewall restrictions set on any commands.  For
       each firmware firewall command listed below, parameters  may  be  included  to  cause  the
       command  to  be  executed  with  increasing  granularity on a specific LUN, for a specific
       NetFn, for a specific IPMI Command, and finally for  a  specific  command's  sub-function.
       See  Appendix  H  in  the IPMI 2.0 Specification for a listing of any sub-function numbers
       that may be associated with a particular command.

       This utility can use either the /dev/ipmi0 driver from OpenIPMI, the /dev/imb driver  from
       Intel,  the  /dev/ipmikcs  driver  from  valinux,  direct  user-space IOs, or the IPMI LAN
       interface if -N.

OPTIONS

       Command line options are described below.

       -m 002000
              Show FRU for a specific MC (e.g. bus 00, sa 20, lun 00).  This could  be  used  for
              PICMG  or  ATCA  blade  systems.  The trailing character, if present, indicates SMI
              addressing if 's', or IPMB addressing if 'i' or not present.

       -x     Causes extra debug messages to be displayed.

       -N nodename
              Nodename or IP address of the remote target system.  If a  nodename  is  specified,
              IPMI  LAN  interface  is  used.  Otherwise the local system management interface is
              used.

       -U rmt_user
              Remote username for the nodename given.  The default is a null username.

       -P/-R rmt_pswd
              Remote password for the nodename given.  The default is a null password.

       -E     Use the remote password from Environment variable IPMI_PASSWORD.

       -F drv_t
              Force the driver type to one of the followng: imb, va,  open,  gnu,  landesk,  lan,
              lan2,  lan2i, kcs, smb.  Note that lan2i means lan2 with intelplus.  The default is
              to detect any available driver type and use it.

       -J     Use  the  specified  LanPlus  cipher   suite   (0   thru   17):   0=none/none/none,
              1=sha1/none/none,   2=sha1/sha1/none,   3=sha1/sha1/cbc128,   4=sha1/sha1/xrc4_128,
              5=sha1/sha1/xrc4_40, 6=md5/none/none, ... 14=md5/md5/xrc4_40.  Default is 3.

       -T     Use a specified IPMI LAN Authentication  Type:  0=None,  1=MD2,  2=MD5,  4=Straight
              Password, 5=OEM.

       -V     Use  a  specified  IPMI  LAN  privilege  level.  1=Callback  level,  2=User  level,
              3=Operator level, 4=Administrator level (default), 5=OEM level.

       -Y     Yes, do prompt the user for the IPMI LAN remote  password.   Alternatives  for  the
              password are -E or -P.

PARAMETERS

       Parameter syntax and dependencies are as follows:

       firewall [channel H] [lun L [ netfn N [command C [subfn S]]]]

       Note  that if "netfn N" is specified, then "lun L" must also be specified;  if "command C"
       is specified, then "netfn N" (and therefore "lun L") must also be specified, and so forth.

       "channel H" is an optional and standalone parameter.   If  not  specified,  the  requested
       operation  will  be  performed on the current channel.  Note that command support may vary
       from channel to channel.

       Firmware firewall commands:

              info [(Parms as described above)]

                     List firmware firewall information for the specified LUN, NetFn, and Command
                     (if  supplied)  on  the  current  or  specified channel.  Listed information
                     includes the support, configurable,  and  enabled  bits  for  the  specified
                     command or commands.

                     Some usage examples:

                     info [channel H] [lun L]

                            This  command  will list firmware firewall information for all NetFns
                            for the specified LUN on either the current or the specified channel.

                     info [channel H] [lun L [ netfn N ]

                            This command will print out all  command  information  for  a  single
                            LUN/NetFn pair.

                     info [channel H] [lun L [ netfn N [command C] ]]

                            This  prints  out  detailed,  human-readable  information showing the
                            support, configurable, and enabled bits for the specified command  on
                            the specified LUN/NetFn pair.  Information will be printed about each
                            of the command subfunctions.

                     info [channel H] [lun L [ netfn N [command C [subfn S]]]]

                            Print out information for a specific sub-function.

              enable [(Parms as described above)]

                     This command is used to enable commands for a given NetFn/LUN combination on
                     the specified channel.

              disable [(Parms as described above)] [force]

                     This  command  is used to disable commands for a given NetFn/LUN combination
                     on the specified channel.   Great care should be taken if using the  "force"
                     option so as not to disable the "Set Command Enables" command.

              reset [(Parms as described above)]

                     This  command  may  be  used  to reset the firmware firewall back to a state
                     where all commands and command sub-functions are enabled.
