Table 2-4. Integrated Devices Screen Options (continued)

Description

 

 

Serial Port

Serial Port options are COM1, COM3, BMC Serial, BMC NIC, COM1/BMC,

(COM1 default)

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.
