SUMMARY
Fixes #3698
This is a very naive PoC on how passing an IPMI encryption key to the
ipmi_boot
module could work. Similar change is needed in theipmi_power
module.I would like feedback on if this is feasible - especially on things like portability. I am not sure it works on all Python versions and so on.
