The following are key terms an administrator should recognize when working with WS-Management: • Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) - A set of common interfaces to computer hardware that is used to monitor and manage system health. • Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) - A micro-controller that monitors the system and allows for intelligent platform management. • IPMI Driver - The driver that enables communication between the BMC device and the OS. • IPMI Provider - As defined by Microsoft, "a user-mode COM DLL that implements a high-level abstraction of the IPMI data using the standard IPMI CIM profile." 15
