Will it be just integers? What be the range? Does it need to be comma separated?

NAME
ipmidetect - list detected and/or undetected IPMI interfaces in a cluster SYNOPSIS
ipmidetect [OPTION...] [NODES...] DESCRIPTION
ipmidetect lists which IPMI nodes have been detected or undetected in a cluster. This information is provided by the libipmidetect(3) library and ipmidetectd(8) daemon. ipmidetect will output the status of each IPMI node configured with ipmidetectd(8) unless they are specified on the command line. If the first node listed is "-", nodes will be read in from standard input. The nodes can be listed in hostrange format, comma separated lists, or space separated lists. See the section below on HOSTRANGED SUPPORT for instructions on how to list hosts in range format. The hostnames listed must be the shortened names of hostnames. OPTIONS
-h, --help Print help and exit -v, --version Print version and exit -o STRING, --hostname=STRING server hostname (default=localhost) -p INT, --port=INT server port (default=8649) -d, --detected List only detected nodes -u, --undetected List only undetected nodes -q, --hostrange List nodes in hostrange format (default) -c, --comma List nodes in comma separated list -n, --newline List nodes in newline separated list -s, --space List nodes in space separated list HOSTRANGED SUPPORT
Multiple hosts can be input either as an explicit comma separated lists of hosts or a range of hostnames in the general form: prefix[n-m,l- k,...], where n < m and l < k, etc. The later form should not be confused with regular expression character classes (also denoted by []). For example, foo[19] does not represent foo1 or foo9, but rather represents a degenerate range: foo19. This range syntax is meant only as a convenience on clusters with a prefixNN naming convention and specification of ranges should not be considered necessary -- the list foo1,foo9 could be specified as such, or by the range foo[1,9]. Some examples of range usage follow: foo[01-05] instead of foo01,foo02,foo03,foo04,foo05 foo[7,9-10] instead of foo7,foo9,foo10 foo[0-3] instead of foo0,foo1,foo2,foo3 As a reminder to the reader, some shells will interpret brackets ([ and ]) for pattern matching. Depending on your shell, it may be neces- sary to enclose ranged lists within quotes. REPORTING BUGS
