it's directed by kernel module:

modprobe ipmi_devintf
modprobe ipmi_si

root@myserver:~# ipmitool sel info

Hot to use python-ipmi, no network lan or etc ... just direct call to kernel ipmi on /dev/ipmi0

Hi,

you should use the ipmitool backend with interface type opeǹ.

Take a look on https://github.com/kontron/python-ipmi/blob/master/pyipmi/interfaces/ipmitool.py#L228.
