IP address
ip — specifies the specific IP address used to connect to the SOL Proxy. This item defines what
kind of connection can be accepted to establish a SOL Proxy telnet session. There are three
possible values:
•
INADDR_ANY — SOL Proxy accepts the telnet request to any system.
•
127.0.0.1 — SOL Proxy accepts the telnet request to the localhost.
•
IP address — SOL Proxy accepts the telnet request to the specified IP address.
For example:
ip=INADDR_ANY
Port binding
port — specifies the port at which the SOL Proxy listens for incoming connections. By default, the
port is set to 623 and can be modified by the user.
This item defines the port when you telnet SOL Proxy. If this item is absent, 623 is set as the
default port. For example:
port=623
Session Timeout
session_timeout — specifies the time in minutes before the SOL Proxy session times out.
If there is no keyboard activity for the specified timeout period, the telnet session and the SOL
session will be closed. The timeout value is specified in minutes and can be changed during SOL
Proxy installation. For example:
session_timeout=30
Power-off Timeout
power_off_timeout — specifies the time in seconds before the SOL Proxy gives up polling for the
managed system's power status. If the SOL Proxy issues the power off command and the system
does not power off within the specified interval, the SOL Proxy returns with a message, indicating
that the SOL Proxy was unable to power off the system due to the timeout interval.
NOTE:
When Reboot and Activate Console Redirection is selected and power for the remote managed
system is on, a power off IPMI command is issued. The power status is then continually monitored until
the power status reports "off." If power status remains "on" longer than this timeout period, Reboot and
Activate Console Redirection reports an error and returns to the top-level menu. This timeout value is
specified in seconds and can be changed during SOL Proxy installation.
For example:
power_off_timeout=60
54
