[Ipmitool-devel] RMCP 1.5 Activate Session

[Kevin H. <ke...@va...>]

Hello, all, and thanks for the great tool.
 
I noticed that ipmitool does not care about the session sequence number
generated by the MC in an RMCP 1.5 session.  In
ipmi_activate_session_cmd, a random number is assigned to the sequence
number field ( get_random(msg_data+18, 4); ) but this value is not
stored for later use.  I assume this is to facilitate use with
non-conforming MCs, instead of playing "protocol police" but I wonder if
a --strict or --pedantic sort of option could be added.
