IPMI Library for Java

Verax IPMI is an asynchronous, highly scalable Java library implementing IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) protocol 2.0 over UDP in accordance with the v2.0, revision 1.0 standard. The IPMI interface has been adopted as a SNMP alternative for hardware management by many vendors.

Features

• UDP session management: connect, disconnect, keep-alives, sliding window for messages and message sequence numbers.
• Encoders and decoders for event log, sensor values and hardware information (FRU - Field Replaceable Unit).
• Extensibility with additional, user-defined encoders.
• Timeout & retry handling UDP IPMI messages.
• Support of any number of concurrent sessions.
• Standard-required, encryption algorithms for authentication (RAKP-HMAC-SHA1), confidentiality (AES-CBC-128) and integrity (HMAC-SHA1-96). Additional, user-defined algorithms can be provided.

IMPI 1.5 limited support

The library supports encoders/decoders for IMPI version 1.5 messages, however session management is provided only for version 2.0.

Implementation

• Efficient, fully asynchronous, stage machine based API.
• Native Java 1.6 implementation - no additional native libraries or drivers required.
• JProfiler tested for memory leaks & performance.

Due to its high performance the library is used as IPMI communication layer in the Verax NMS.
