A fake ipmi server for testing purposes both as a tool and a library.
The code is forked from Conpot and based on pyghmi.
This fork called vmipmisim is targeted at the goal of enabling testing IPMI workflows with vm infrastructure.
The tool ships with default sets of users for ease of use:
ID Name Callin Link Auth IPMI Msg Channel Priv Limit
1 admin true true true ADMINISTRATOR
2 operator true false false OPERATOR
3 user true true true USER
The default passwords are:
admin : password
opuser : oppassword
user : userpassword
Installation:
Work in progress
Running:
ipmisim 3000 testvm01 vmware vcsa01.dev.local administrator@vsphere.local Test1234!
# Runs on custom port 3000, else 9001 by default
# Performs IPMI action on testvm01
# VM type of VMware, libvirt, hyperv so know what type of infrastructure to connect to. Hyperv and libvirt are work ing progress
# vcsa01.dev.local the vcenter or other management host with api to connect to, should work with esxi host directly also.
# administrator@vsphere.local, username to conenct to infrastructure with
# Test1234!, password for the username.
# All of the above should be passed as environment variables or fetched at run time in ideal circumstances, commandline switches present for testing and prototyping.
Updated make file to use python 3 although this should probably be set through the path instead. If you want to test on 623 the default ipmi port then you may have to adjust permissions on the destination system.
Testing with ipmitool:
ipmitool -I lanplus -H localhost -p 9001 -R1 -U admin -P password chassis power status
Other Notes:
When using pyvmomi ensure the most recent version of requests is installed, can cause errors related to urllib3 if mismatch
pip3 install --upgrade requests
