not normally detect if this port is open on iLO 2. iLO 2 listens
on this port for a few seconds when the Remote Console is
opened, but Telnet connections are not accepted.
Communication between the iLO 2 and Remote Console is
always encrypted.
This setting enables you to specify which port the iLO 2 Remote
Console uses for remote console communications.
23Remote Console/Telnet Port
This setting enables you to specify which port the embedded
web server in iLO 2 uses for unencrypted communications.
80Web Server Non-SSL Port
This setting enables you to specify which port the embedded
web server in iLO 2 uses for encrypted communications.
443Web Server SSL Port
This setting enables you to control the ability to support a
connection through iLO 2 between a Microsoft Terminal Services
DisabledTerminal Services Passthrough
client and Terminal Services server running on the host. The
following settings are valid:
• Automatic – When remote console is started, the Terminal
Services client is launched.
• Enabled – The passthrough feature is enabled and can
connect the Terminal Services client directly to the iLO 2
without logging-into the iLO 2.
• Disabled – The passthrough feature is off.
This setting enables you to specify the Terminal Services Port
that the iLO 2 uses for encrypted communications with Terminal
3389Terminal Services Port
Services passthrough software on the server. If the Terminal
Services port is configured to anything other than the default,
you must manually change the port number.
This setting enables you to specify whether the virtual media

Terminal Services Passthrough option
Terminal Services is provided by the Microsoft Windows operating systems. The iLO 2 Terminal
Services Passthrough option provides a connection between the Terminal Services server on the
host system and the Terminal Services client on the client system. When the Terminal Services
