11.8Setting up a Serial Over LAN Session

The target blade is the SOL blade that sends the serial data to the client.

Ensure that the MPCBL0010 SBC has the following firmware/OS versions loaded:

•IPMC Firmware 4.56_R006 or later

•BIOS 045.P04 or later

•sbcutilities 1.2.0.10 or later

•MontaVista 4.0 LSP, RHEL 4.0 U3

Configure the target blade BIOS baud rate so that it is set to 9600.

Note: The SOL target blade can operate at baud rates of 9600, 19200, and 38400 only. All examples in this document use a baud rate of 9600.

Configure the BIOS configuration of SOL target blade as follows:

1.When the blade starts booting, press F4 from HyperTerminal (or an equivalent terminal program) to enter the BIOS setup menu.

2.Choose the Advanced menu.

Change the Flow Control parameter to "Hardware".

4.Change Serial Port Mode to the 9600 baud rate if it is not already set to that speed.

5.Press Esc.
