Using GUI Console Redirection 171
Once installed, the browser will not prompt for that plug-in installation again,
as long as the target DRAC5 firmware does not contain a newer version of the
plug-in.
Why does the console redirection session end when I reboot my terminal?
When the DRAC 5 NIC settings are in "shared" or "shared with failover"
mode, a system reset causes the LAN On Motherboard (LOM) to reset. On
networks that have switches with the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) enabled,
this causes the connection between the management station and the client to
be re-established after approximately ten to fifteen seconds. As a result,
connectivity with the remote system is lost and a connection lost error
message is displayed on the console redirection and virtual media clients.
If you access the DRAC GUI at this time, you will receive "Page Not Found"
error message.
To work around this issue:
• Use the DRAC 5 dedicated NIC for connection over the network.
• Disable STP on the network switches.
