CLI Guide

When set to rad , the external serial connector is routed to the

remote access device interface. Terminal escape sequences can

toggle the external connector between the system (COM2) and the

remote access device.

This option can be replicated.

Example:

A:>syscfg --extserial=com1

extserial=com1

The --serialcomm option can be used with the external serial (--

extserial) option instead of the --conred (available on systems earlier

than PowerEdge 9G systems) option.

Applicable Systems

All PowerEdge systems except Blade systems.

--FailSafeBaud/--fsbr

Valid Arguments

• On systems prior to 12G: 115200, 57600, 19200, 9600

• On 12G and later systems: 115200, 57600, 19200, 9600

Description

Sets the console redirection fail safe baud rate in bps. The BIOS

attempts to determine the baud rate automatically. This failsafe baud

rate is used only if the attempt fails.

Example:

A:>syscfg --fsbr=9600

fsbr=9600

Applicable Systems All PowerEdge systems.

--RedirAfterBoot

Valid Arguments

• On systems prior to 12G: NA

• On 12G and later systems: Enabled, Disabled

Description

Sets the BIOS console redirection to enable or disable when the

operating system is loaded.

Example:

A:>syscfg --RedirAfterBoot=Enabled

RedirAfterBoot=Enabled
