Description

 

 

Serial Communication

Selects serial communication devices (Serial Device 1 and Serial Device 2)

 

in the BIOS. BIOS console redirection can also be enabled and the port

 

address can be specified. By default, Serial Communication option is set

 

to Auto.

Serial Port Address

Enables you to set the port address for serial devices. By default, the

 

Serial Port Address option is set to Serial Device 1=COM2, Serial Device

 

2=COM1

 

NOTE: You can use only Serial Device 2 for the Serial Over LAN

 

(SOL) feature. To use console redirection by SOL, configure the

 

same port address for console redirection and the serial device.

 

NOTE: Every time the system boots, the BIOS syncs the serial MUX

 

setting saved in iDRAC. The serial MUX setting can independently be

 

changed in iDRAC. Therefore, loading the BIOS default settings from

 

within the BIOS setup utility may not always revert this setting to the

 

default setting of Serial Device 1.

External Serial Connector

You can associate the External Serial Connector to Serial Device 1, Serial

 

Device 2, or the Remote Access Device using this field.

 

NOTE: Only Serial Device 2 can be used for (Serial Over LAN) SOL.

 

To use console redirection by SOL, configure the same port address

 

for console redirection and the serial device.

 

NOTE: Every time the system boots, the BIOS syncs the serial MUX

 

setting saved in iDRAC. The serial MUX setting can independently be

 

changed in iDRAC. Therefore, loading the BIOS default settings from

 

within the BIOS setup utility may not always revert this setting to the

 

default setting of Serial Device 1.

Failsafe Baud Rate

Displays the failsafe baud rate for console redirection. The BIOS attempts

 

to determine the baud rate automatically. This failsafe baud rate is used

 

only if the attempt fails, and the value must not be changed. By default,

 

the Failsafe Baud Rate option is set to 115200.

Remote Terminal Type

Sets the remote console terminal type. By default, the Remote Terminal

 

Type option is set to VT 100/VT 220.

Redirection After Boot

Enables or disables the BIOS console redirection when the operating

 

system is loaded. By default, the Redirection After Boot option is set to

 

Enabled.
