Console Redirection Screen
Table 2-5 lists the options and descriptions for the information fields that appear on the Console
Redirection screen.
Serial Port
(COM1 default) Serial Port options are COM1, COM3, BMC Serial, BMC NIC,
COM1/BMC, and Off. If an optional remote access controller
(RAC) is installed in the system, RAC is an additional option.
Serial Port shares three usage models. For standard usage, Serial
Port attempts to use COM1 first, and then COM3. For BMC
usage, serial port 1 uses the COM1 address and communication
can be either via the serial port or the integrated shared NIC. RAC
control uses only the COM1 address.
The COM1/BMC setting allows you to toggle the system between
a COM1 setting and BMC Serial setting. In this mode, press
<ESC> to enter the BMC Serial setting and press <ESC><q>
to return to the COM1 setting.
Off and COM3 are not available options when Console
Redirection is set to use Serial Port 1.
Speaker
(On default) Enables or disables the system internal speaker.
