 .SH NAME
-fence_ipmilan - I/O Fencing agent for machines controlled by IPMI over
-LAN.
+fence_ipmilan - Fence agent for IPMI over LAN
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.P
 
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B
-fence_ipmilan
-[\fIOPTION\fR]...
+fence_ipmilan is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with machines controlled by IPMI. This agent calls support software using ipmitool (http://ipmitool.sf.net/).
 
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-fence_ipmilan is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with 
-machines controlled by IPMI.  This agent calls support software
-using ipmitool (http://ipmitool.sf.net/).
+To use fence_ipmilan with HP iLO 3 you have to enable lanplus option (lanplus / -P) and increase wait after operation to 4 seconds (power_wait=4 / -T 4)
+.P
+fence_ipmilan accepts options on the command line as well
+as from stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the
+agent. fence_ipmilan can be run by itself with command
+line options.  This is useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off
+from scripts.

+	
 .TP
-\fB-M\fP \fImethod\fP

+Reboot machine.
+	
 .TP
-\fB-t\fP \fItimeout\fP
-Timeout in seconds for IPMI operation. Default is 10, but in some cases it
