.SH "NAME"
nutscan_scan_ipmi \- Scan local IPMI devices\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
.nf
#include <nut\-scan\&.h>
.fi
.sp
.nf
nutscan_device_t * nutscan_scan_ipmi(
      const char * startIP,
      const char * stopIP,
      nutscan_ipmi_t * sec);
.fi
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
The \fBnutscan_scan_ipmi()\fR function tries to detect IPMI manageable devices\&.
.sp
If \fIstart_ip\fR is NULL, the function searches for a local PSU\&.
.sp
Otherwise, it searches for remote hosts that would serve IPMI protocols, and would try to authenticate using the data in \fIsec\fR structure\&. It issues a NUT request on every IP ranging from \fIstartIP\fR to \fIstopIP\fR, where \fIstopIP\fR is optional\&. Those IP arguments may be either IPv4 or IPv6 addresses or host names\&.
.sp
You MUST call \fBnutscan_init\fR(3) before using this function\&.
.SH "BUGS"
.sp
Design or implementation of this function may be incomplete: until recently, this man page stated that it was not implemented yet\&. Source code is present, although some blocks are commented away or hidden with #if 0\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.sp
The \fBnutscan_scan_ipmi()\fR function is not implemented yet\&.
