Limitations
Console redirection is a real mode BIOS extension, and has been modied to transition into EFI space.
The transition is actually a parameter passing exercise whereby the serial redirection scheme native
to the EFI takes over using the settings established in BIOS Setup.
Video is redirected by scanning for, and sending changes to, text video memory across the redirection
channel. Thus, console redirection is unable to redirect video in graphics mode. Keyboard redirection
functions via the BIOS INT 16h handler. Software bypassing this handler does not receive redirected
keystrokes. After entering EFI, the redirection scheme changes somewhat, but the effect is the
same.
Interface to Server Management
If BIOS determines that console redirection is enabled, reads the current baud rate from EMP, and
passes this value to the appropriate management controller via the IPMB.
