Hi P.K.

If I understand correctly, you want to have a system that operates in
one of two modes - restricted or un-restricted.  When the system is in
restricted mode, only whitelisted commands will be processed from _any_
channel.  Do I understand correctly?

How do you restore the system to unrestricted mode?  Some side-band (non
IPMI) mechanism?

If you are able to share, I'm curious to know more about the usage
pattern driving the need for this.
