+FreeIPMI provides in-band and out-of-band IPMI software based on the
+IPMI v1.5/2.0 specification.
+
+The IPMI specification defines a set of interfaces for platform
+management. It is utilized by a wide variety of vendors for system
+management on motherboards. The features of IPMI that most users will
+be interested in are sensor monitoring, remote power control,
+serial-over-LAN (SOL), and system debugging. The FreeIPMI tools and
+libraries in this package should provide users with the ability to
+access and utilize these features.
