Keyboard, Video, and Mouse (KVM) Redirection

The advanced management features include support for keyboard, video, and mouse
redirection (KVM) over LAN. This feature is available remotely from the embedded web server
as a Java* applet. The client system must have a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) Version 1.6
(JRE6) or later to run the KVM or media redirection applets. You can download the latest Java
Runtime Environment (JRE) update:
This feature is only enabled when the Intel

controller must be enabled and used as the primary video output

function of Intel RMM3, even if no presence of RMM3 is detected. Users will see one set of
USB keyboard and mouse in addition to the local USB connection on the BIOS Setup USB
screen with or without RMM3 installed.
6.2.2.1 Keyboard and Mouse
The keyboard and mouse are emulated by the BMC as USB human interface devices.
6.2.2.2 Video
Video output from the KVM subsystem is equivalent to video output on the local console via
onboard video controller. Video redirection is available once video is initialized by the system
BIOS. The KVM video resolutions and refresh rates will always match the values set in the
operating system.
6.2.2.3 Availability
Up to two remote KVM sessions are supported. An error displays on the web browser
attempting to launch more than two KVM sessions.
The default inactivity timeout is 30 minutes, but you may change the default through the
embedded web server. Remote KVM activation does not disable the local system keyboard,
video, or mouse. Unless the feature is disabled locally, remote KVM is not deactivated by local
system input.
KVM sessions will persist across system reset but not across an AC power loss.
6.2.3

Media Redirection

The embedded web server provides a Java* applet to enable remote media redirection. You
may use this in conjunction with the remote KVM feature or as a standalone applet.
The media redirection feature is intended to allow system administrators or users to mount a
remote IDE or USB CD-ROM, floppy drive, or a USB flash disk as a remote device to the server.
Once mounted, the remote device appears as a local device to the server, allowing system
