netOrk's discovery took six switches for BMCs: the PortSpec for 443
added 5 points to every device with a web UI, and nothing else scored
them. The port now carries no weight.
The real BMC, a Supermicro X10DRL-i, was not recognised at all. Its web
UI (ATEN firmware) gets a rule, as do iDRAC and iLO; discovery fetches
those landing pages today. A rule for a Redfish error body covers the
service root once discovery reads it.
That board refuses Redfish without a Supermicro license, even the
service root (403 OemLicenseNotPassed, "SUM DCMS OOB"). The library
reports only the status, so open() reads the error body once more and
raises RedfishLicenseError naming the licenses.
Release 0.1.1.
Session login through the SessionService with X-Auth-Token, the session deleted on close (also on errors and when the DELETE fails), basic auth as fallback only when the service cannot create sessions, never after a rejected password. Certificate verification is on by default and configurable per device; True passes the requests CA bundle explicitly because the redfish library disables verification without a CA file.
Collections are followed by @odata.id, including expanded members and nextLink pages. Links to other hosts are refused so the session token stays on the BMC.
