For fun: This actually runs the Java Applet KVM viewer on a SuperMicro X7 board: https://github.com/ixs/kvm-cli/blob/master/kvm_x7.py

1. Downloads the data from the IPMI interface

2. Modifies the files to run locally

3. Writes out a Java configuration with weak security settings so that TLS works with the deprecated ciphers.

4. Fires off a socat instance to redirect the localhost ports to the remote IPMI device.

5. Starts appletviewer locally.

Great fun writing that. Thank god we decomissioned the last X7 based storage appliances a while ago...
