Accessing the iLO MP Using a Modem

NOTE: To enable or disable the modem port, or give switch modem control between the iLO

MP and the OS, do the following:

■ iLO MP firmware E.02.10: use the ER command

■ iLO MP firmware E.02.20 or higher: use the SA command

To enter iLO MP command mode using a modem, follow these steps:

1. Log into the iLO MP using a serial or LAN connection and configure the modem using the

CA command:

❏ Baud rates: Input and output data rates are the same.

❏ Flow control: Hardware uses RTS/CTS; Software uses Xon/Xoff.

❏ Terminal type: HPterm

❏ Transmit configuration strings: Disable this setting whenever the modem being used is

not compatible with the supported modem.

❏ Modem presence: When the modem may not always be connected, set this parameter to

not always connected. For example: A modem attached through a switch. In this mode,

no dial-out functions are allowed and paging is not possible.

❏ Modem protocol: CCITT is a European standard; RTS/CTS signaling is used, as well as

the Ring signal. Bell is a U.S. or simple mode.

2. Configure the modem and dial-up software on your remote computer to match the settings on

the iLO MP card.

3. Dial-in using the procedures required by your dial-up software.

4. Wait for the iLO MP login to display on the screen.
