Feature

Option

Description

BIOS

Disabled

Selects the Serial port to use for BIOS Console Redirection. “Disabled”

Redirection Port

Serial 1 (DB-9)

completely disables BIOS Console Redirection.

 

Serial 2 (RJ45)

 

 

 

 

ACPI

Disabled

Selects the Serial port to use for ACPI Headless Console Redirection.

Redirection Port

Serial 1 (DB-9)

“Disabled” completely disables ACPI Headless Console Redirection.

 

Serial 2 (RJ45)

 

 

 

 

BIOS

9600

When console redirection is enabled, use the baud rate specified. When the

Redirection

19.2k

Emergency Management Port shares the COM port as console redirection,

Baud Rate

the baud rate must be set to 19.2 k to match the Emergency Management

57.6K

 

Port baud rate, unless auto-baud feature is used. BMC/IPMI may override

 

115.2k

 

this value.

 

 

 

BIOS

No Flow Control

NoFlow Control = No flow control.

Redirection Flow

CTS/RTS

CTS/RTS = Hardware based flow control.

Control

XON/XOFF

XON/XOFF = Software flow control.

 

 

CTS/RTS + CD

CTS/RTS +CD = Hardware based + Carrier Detect flow control.

 

 

When EMP is sharing the same serial port as console redirection, the flow

 

 

control must be set to CTS/RTS or CTS/RTS+CD depending on whether a

 

 

modem is used.

Bios Redirection

VT100+

This selects the character set to send out the serial port when console

Terminal Type

VT-UTF8

redirection is enabled. VT-UTF8 makes use of Unicode characters and is

 

PC-ANSI

intended specifically for use by new Microsoft software or other companies

 

that use Unicode. PC-ANSI is a “legacy” selection that uses the same

 

 

 

 

character map as previous Intel server console redirection and is intended

 

 

to support existing software. Note that for VT100+ you must select English

 

 

as your language.

 

 

 

Serial Port

Serial A

Only present on 1U systems. Selects which serial port will be routed to the

Connector

Serial B/EMP

serial port connector on the back of the chassis. Serial A selects UARTA

 

 

and Serial B selects UARTB.

No

 

 

When yes is chosen, the BIOS will clear the System Event Log on the next

 

 

 

 

 

Yes

 

 

boot.

Enables / disables System Event Logging.

 

 

 

 

 

Enabled

 

 

 

 

 

Critical Event Logging

 

 

Disabled

 

 

Enables/ disables critical system event logging including PERR, SERR, ECC

 

 

 

 

 

Enabled
