    "BMCs and the IPMI Protocol

    Baseboard Management Controllers (BMCs) are a type of embedded
    computer used to provide out-of-band monitoring for desktops and
    servers. These products are sold under many brand names, including HP
    iLO, Dell DRAC, Sun ILOM, Fujitsu iRMC, *IBM IMM*, and Supermicro
    IPMI."
