If iLO RBSU is disabled, user access is prohibited. This prevents modification using the RBSU
interface.
RBSU Login Required (more secure)
If RBSU login is required, then the active configuration menus are controlled by the authenticated
user's access rights.
RBSU Login Not Required (default)
Anyone with access to the host during POST may enter the iLO RBSU to view and modify
configuration settings. This is an acceptable setting if host access is controlled.

Encryption

iLO provides strong security for remote management in distributed IT environments by using 128-bit SSL
encryption of HTTP data transmitted across the network. SSL encryption ensures that the HTTP information
is secure as it travels across the network.
Remote Console data is protected using 128-bit RC4 bidirectional encryption.

Remote Console Computer Lock

Remote Console Computer Lock enhances the security of an iLO managed server by automatically locking
an operating system or logging out a user when a remote console session terminates or the network link to
iLO is lost. Unlike the Remote Console, this feature is standard and does not require an additional license.
As a result, if you open a Remote Console Session window and have this feature configured, it will lock
the operating system when the window is closed even if additional feature licenses are not installed.
You can view and configure the Remote Console Computer Lock settings through the Administration or the
Remote Console tabs in the iLO interface.The Remote Console Computer Lock feature is disabled by
default.
To change the Remote Console Computer Lock settings:
Log in to iLO using an account that has the Configure iLO Settings privilege.
1.
Select Computer Lock Settings. The Computer Lock Settings screen appears.
2.
Modify the settings as required:
3.
Windows—Use this option to configure iLO to lock a managed server running a Windows®
o
operating system. The server automatically displays the Computer Locked dialog box when a
remote console session is terminated or the iLO network link is lost.
Custom—Use this option to configure iLO to use a custom key sequence to lock a managed
o
server or log out a user on that server. You can select up to five keys from the list. The selected
key sequence is automatically sent to the server operating system when a remote console session
is terminated or the iLO network link is lost.
Disabled—Use this option to disable the Remote Console Computer Lock feature. Terminating a
o
remote console session or losing an iLO network link will not lock the managed server.
