▶ Serial Port Console Redirection
▶ Console Redirection
Console Redirection operates in host systems that do not have a monitor and
keyboard attached. This setting enables/disables the operation of console re-
direction. When set to [Enabled], BIOS redirects and sends all contents that
should be displayed on the screen to the serial COM port for display on the
terminal screen. Besides, all data received from the serial port is interpreted
as keystrokes from a local keyboard.
▶ Console Redirection Settings
▶ Terminal Type
To operate the system's console redirection, you need a terminal supporting
ANSI terminal protocol and a RS-232 null modem cable connected between
the host system and terminal(s). This setting specifies the type of terminal
device for console redirection.
▶ Bits per second, Data Bits, Parity, Stop Bits
This setting specifies the transfer rate (bits per second, data bits, parity,
stop bits) of Console Redirection.
▶ Flow Control
Flow control is the process of managing the rate of data transmission
between two nodes. It's the process of adjusting the flow of data from one
device to another to ensure that the receiving device can handle all of the
incoming data. This is particularly important where the sending device is
capable of sending data much faster than the receiving device can receive
it.
