4.2.1.1 Intel
®
RMM3 Lite
The Intel
®
RMM3 Lite provides additional flash storage for advanced features like Web Services
for Management (WS-MAN). RMM3 Lite has no dedicated network interface. The user can
access BMC advance features through on board NIC 5.
Note: RMM3 Lite has no physical dedicated network interface, but BMC FW still contains
corresponding logical BMC channel 3. The user cannot access BMC channel 3.
4.2.2 Keyboard, Video, Mouse (KVM) Redirection
The Integrated BMC firmware supports keyboard, video, and mouse redirection over LAN. This
feature is available remotely from the embedded web server as a Java applet. This feature is
enabled only when the Intel
®
RMM3 Lite is present. The client system must have a Java
Runtime Environment (JRE) version 5.0 or later to run the KVM or media redirection applets.
The user can download the latest Java Runtime Environment (JRE) update from:
http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp
Note: KVM Redirection is only available with onboard video controller, and the onboard video
controller must be enabled and used as the primary video output
The BIOS will detect one set of USB keyboard and mouse for the KVM redirection function of
Intel
®
RMM3 Lite, even if no presence of RMM3 Lite is detected. Users will see one set of USB
keyboard and mouse in addition to the local USB connection on the BIOS Setup USB screen
with or without RMM3 installed.
4.2.2.1 Keyboard and Mouse
The keyboard and mouse are emulated by the Integrated BMC as USB human interface
devices.
4.2.2.2 Video
Video output from the KVM subsystem is equivalent to the
video output on the local console.
Video redirection is available after video is initialized by the system BIOS. The KVM video
resolution and refresh rates will always match the values set in the operating system.
4.2.2.3 Availability
Up to two remote KVM sessions
are supported. The default inactivity timeout is 30 minutes;
however, this can be changed through the embedded web server. Remote KVM activation does
not disable the local system keyboard, video, or mouse. Unless the feature is disabled locally,
remote KVM is not deactivated by local system input.
KVM sessions persist across system reset but not across an AC power loss.
4.2.3 Media Redirection
The embedded web server provides a Java* applet to enable remote media redirection. This
may be used in conjunction with the remote KVM feature or as a standalone applet.
The media redirection feature is intended to allow system administrators or users to mount a
remote IDE or USB CD-ROM, floppy drive, or a USB flash disk as a remote device to the server.
