C Remote Control Function and
Console Redirection
When a personal computer (PC) is connected to the serial port of this server with a
cross cable, the server can be turned on/off or reset from the PC via RS-232C
(remote control function). Console redirection can be performed in the same manner.
The remote control and console redirection functions can be switched between each other.
Perform the following procedures to use these two functions.
• Connecting the Server to a PC
• Setting the server using the Remote Control Utility
To use the reset function via RS-232C, the terminal software on the PC must have the same
communication speed and flow control mode settings as those on the Remote Control Utility.
When both remote control function and BIOS console redirection are used, perform the following
procedures in the BIOS Setup Utility.
• On the [Peripheral Configuration] submenu of the [Advanced] menu, change [Serial Multiplexer] to
[Shared].
"8.2.6 Peripheral Configuration Submenu" (pg.200)
• On the [Console Redirection] submenu of the [Server] menu, change [Console Redirection Port] to
[Enabled].
"8.2.15 Console Redirection Submenu" (pg.214)
