 Remote Control
In the Remote Control node within Manageability page, you can power on, power off,
power reset, or power recycle the DASH capable computer. You can use the check
box to specify the boot device during next booting. Currently this feature is based on
PLDM for BIOS Control and Configuration Specification and the system needs at
least a one-time boot before you could get attached bootable devices. Figure 8 shows
the snap shot of this feature.

 Console Redirection
The DASH on PICO121 supports two redirection services, text console redirection and
USB redirection services. These two features can be found in the Console Redirection
tab, such as shown in Figure 9.
For USB redirection, users can redirect a pre-created image, CD-ROM drive, USB
dongle and floppy from a remote console as if the device is plugged within the client
computer. You can use the check box to choose an image file (Using image file) or a
physical drive (Using true device) for redirection. By pressing the “…” button, you must
specify the file name or the drive letter used for redirection before starting redirection
service. Besides, except for CD-ROM drive redirection, USB redirection also implements
write operations, which means you can write data from the client side back to the
console side. Moreover, you can check the Using URL and provide a valid URL to do
the same thing. However, you need to setup a web server and put the USB image in that
server before enabling the USB redirection service. Only read operations are supported.
If write operations are needed, please consider using image file or true device.
Text console redirection has the ability to directly enter BIOS setup or pop out a BBS
screen without user’s pressing any key during the booting time. This can reduce the
effort for users when they want to enter BIOS setup or just temporary change boot
device. Whenever a new option is chosen (Normal Boot, Enter BIOS Setup, and Enter
BBS Popout), you should press the Stop TCR button first and then press the Start TCR
button to get it work correctly.
