If the commands on the CLP command span more than one line, you cannot navigate between different

lines.
Operating system-specific notes

The Microsoft® Windows® 2000 telnet client does not support the Functions keys F1 through F12,
Insert, Home, and End keys. These keys will not work in a Lights-Out 100 command line session.

The Backspace key in the Lights-Out 100 CLP implementation is mapped to the value

0x8

. Some

client operating systems, Novell Linux Desktop and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Desktop, map the
Backspace key to the value

0x7f,

which is used for the Delete key in the Windows® telnet client.

The Backspace key will not work from a client from which it has value of

0x7f

. For the Linux clients,

using the Home or the End key enables the Lights-Out 100 CLP service to remap the Backspace key
to use the value

0x7f

, making the key functional.

In the Windows® PuTTY client, the Backspace key can be mapped to a value of

0x8

by changing the

setting for Terminal Keyboard to Control-H.
