Emp Console Access Modes (Server Configured For Console Redirection) - Intel AC450NX Product Manual

Figure 7-2 shows the EMP Console window in redirect mode with the terminal window. The text
that appears on the server monitor displays in the Redirect window.
Availability of the various EMP Console features are determined by two factors: the BIOS EMP
access mode and whether the server's COM 2 port is configured for console redirection. The three
EMP access modes are: disabled, pre-boot, and always active.
