if ipmitool is not working for you then fence_ipmilan can't work too as 
it is based on it.

For parameters:
     -A is used for 'lan' session (IPMI v1.5)
     -C is used for 'lanplus' session (IPMI v2)
in your case it is lanplus so, -A should not have any impact.

Also, take a look at ipmitool options -k/-y to enter key in normal/hex 
format, instead of using -P
