5.1.3 Configure BMC LAN Failover
To use SYSCFG to configure BMC LAN Failover, perform the following step:
 syscfg /lfo enable
 On S1400/S1600/S2400/S2600/S4600 platform BMC FW provides a LAN failover capability such
that the failure of the system HW associated with one LAN link will result in traffic being rerouted
to an alternate link.
NOTE
S1200BT platforms will not have support for above switch.
5.1.4 Configure BMC to use SOL
To enable the BMC for SOL connection, at a minimum you will need to configure the following

 Enable a LAN channel for SOL
 Enable a user for SOL
To use SYSCFG to configure BMC SOL, perform the following step:
