Getters mapped to Redfish resources

Paths use the usual single-member IDs (Systems/1, Managers/1, Chassis/1); the driver must follow the collections instead of assuming IDs, because vendors differ (Dell uses System.Embedded.1, HPE uses 1, Supermicro uses 1).

Authentication

• Session: POST /redfish/v1/SessionService/Sessions with user and password returns an X-Auth-Token header and the session's URI. Use the token, DELETE the session on close. BMCs allow few concurrent sessions, so leaking them locks out the web UI.
• Basic auth works on most services and is the fallback.
• Self-signed certificates are the norm; verification is configurable per device.

NAPALM getters

Getter	Resource	Fields
get_facts	Systems/{id}, Managers/{id}	Manufacturer, Model, SerialNumber, HostName; BMC FirmwareVersion as os_version. uptime is not in Redfish (return -1). interface_list from Managers/{id}/EthernetInterfaces
get_interfaces	Managers/{id}/EthernetInterfaces/*	BMC ports: MACAddress, SpeedMbps, LinkStatus, InterfaceEnabled
get_interfaces_ip	same	IPv4Addresses, IPv6Addresses
get_environment	Chassis/{id}/Thermal (Temperatures[], Fans[]), Chassis/{id}/Power (PowerSupplies[], PowerControl[].PowerConsumedWatts)	Newer services move these to ThermalSubsystem, PowerSubsystem and Sensors; read whichever exists. CPU and memory of the host OS are unknown to a BMC
get_users	AccountService/Accounts/*	UserName, RoleId, Enabled
get_ntp_servers	Managers/{id}/NetworkProtocol	NTP.NTPServers (newer schema versions only)
get_snmp_information	Managers/{id}/NetworkProtocol	SNMP.ProtocolEnabled (details vary)
get_config	n/a	A BMC has no configuration file. Not implemented

Role methods (draft, see role.md)

Method	Resource
get_power_state	Systems/{id}: PowerState
set_power_state	POST Systems/{id}/Actions/ComputerSystem.Reset with ResetType; allowed values from ResetType@Redfish.AllowableValues (or the ActionInfo resource)
reboot_host (the BMC)	POST Managers/{id}/Actions/Manager.Reset
get_hardware_inventory	Systems/{id} (ProcessorSummary, MemorySummary), Systems/{id}/Processors/*, Systems/{id}/Memory/*, Systems/{id}/Storage/* (older: SimpleStorage), Chassis/{id}/Power PSUs, Systems/{id}/EthernetInterfaces/*
get_event_log	Systems/{id}/LogServices/*/Entries or Managers/{id}/LogServices/*/Entries (where the SEL lives varies by vendor)
get_firmware_inventory	UpdateService/FirmwareInventory/*: Name, Version, Updateable
get_management_protocols	Managers/{id}/NetworkProtocol: HTTP, HTTPS, SSH, IPMI, SNMP, KVMIP, VirtualMedia, SSDP, each with ProtocolEnabled and Port

IPMI fallback (ipmi entry point)

Via pyghmi: device ID and FRU data for get_facts, sensor data repository for get_environment, chassis status for get_power_state, SEL for get_event_log. set_power_state sends a chassis control (On → power up, GracefulShutdown → soft off via ACPI, ForceOff → power down, ForceRestart → hard reset). IPMI has no graceful restart, and pyghmi offers no power cycle, so get_power_state never offers those two. No BMC reset over IPMI.
