IPMI operates in a separate hardware subsystem directly connected to the platform. Typically, in a modern system it will be tightly connected to the motherboard, but additional cards are also a possible implementation option for some systems. This equipment is called the Baseboard Management Controller. BMC manages the interface between the system management software (such as Supermicro's IPMI View) and the platform's hardware.
From this page, you can easily go to download the acute version of IPMIView for Windows, which is important that everything works properly, especially with the latest versions of UEFI BIOS. It's hard for many people to find this software; that's why it's useful to download new versions of IPMI.
