a. Overview / Description
The PowerEdge R710 Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller 6 (iDRAC6) incorporates an integrated
video subsystem, connected to the 32-bit PCI interface of the ICH9. This logic is based on the Matrox
G200. The device only supports 2D graphics. The video device outputs are multiplexed between the
front and rear video ports. If a monitor is connected to the front video connector, it will take precedence
over the rear connection, thereby removing the display from the rear connection. The integrated video
core shares its video memory with the iDRAC6's 128MB DDR2 application space memory. This memory
is also used for the KVM buffer.
The PowerEdge R710 system supports the following 2D graphics video modes:
