86 Advanced Configuration of the iDRAC6

The iDRAC6 SSH implementation supports multiple cryptography schemes,

as shown in Table 5-1.

NOTE: SSHv1 is not supported.

Configuring Linux for Serial Console Redirection During Boot

The following steps are specific to the Linux GRand Unified Bootloader (GRUB).

Similar changes would be necessary if you use a different boot loader.

NOTE: When you configure the client VT100 emulation window, set the window or

application that is displaying the redirected console to 25 rows x 80 columns to

ensure proper text display; otherwise, some text screens may be garbled.
