more IPMI than you can shake a stick at….

I’ve long wanted a Get Channel Cipher Suite command w/o authentication, so I wrote a script to do so; those interested can get it here:

https://github.com/zenfish/ipmi/blob/master/ipmi-get-ciphers.py

Actually none of the various ipmi tools seem to have this option; I’ve found it useful to use when looking at systems; it emits output similar (if not identical) to ipmitool… spotting those running cipher 0 becomes very, very clear. I should have used async probes instead of the back and forth chat that the protocol uses, but … w/e for now.
