Description Marek Grac 2015-03-19 20:24:05 UTC
In RHEL-7.0 default cipher was not set and ipmitools default was used. In 7.1 default cipher was set 0. This (and in fact any) cipher can be disabled what can result to unability to log into IPMI device. 

Using default as in 7.0 is not a great but 7.1 breaks backward compatibility what is even worse.
