RemoteAccDeviceDescription
Description
Sets the behavior of the external serial connector. When set to com1 , the BIOS
maps the external serial connector to COM port 1. The com1 setting is the default.
When set to com2 , the external serial connector is routed to the COM2 interface.
Terminal escape sequences can toggle the external connector between the system
(COM2) and the remote access device.
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.
