Recurring topic, for instance:
http://clusterlabs.org/pipermail/users/2015-October/001567.html
(scroll down under second item)

As a corollary, you should make sure this scenario is indeed unlikely
(e.g., because of NetworkManager activity).

Correct; for instance, see the description above the following
table/anchor:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Cluster_Administration/ap-fence-device-param-CA.html#tb-software-fence-ipmi-CA
+
https://github.com/ClusterLabs/fence-agents/blob/v4.0.21/fence/agents/ipmilan/fence_ipmilan.py#L147

Similar to fence_ilo + fence_ilo2:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Cluster_Administration/ap-fence-device-param-CA.html#tb-software-fence-hpilo-CA
+
https://github.com/ClusterLabs/fence-agents/blob/v4.0.21/fence/agents/ilo/fence_ilo.py#L88

Also note that there can be sophistication on top of plain duplication;
some default parameters can be internally adjusted as per how the
agent is invoked:
https://github.com/ClusterLabs/fence-agents/blob/v4.0.21/fence/agents/ipmilan/fence_ipmilan.py#L130
