Serial Communication Screen, Only Serial Device 2 can be used for Serial Over

Page 47 highlights

Serial Communication Screen Option Description Serial Communication (On without Console Redirection default) Selects whether the serial communication devices (Serial Device 1 and Serial Device 2) are enabled in BIOS. BIOS console redirection can also be enabled and the port address used can be specified. Options are On without Console Redirection, On with Console Redirection via COM1, On with Console Redirection via COM2, and Off. Serial Port Address (Serial Device 1=COM1, Serial Device 2=COM2 default) Sets the serial port addresses for the two serial devices. NOTE: Only Serial Device 2 can be used for Serial Over LAN (SOL). To use console redirection by SOL, configure the same port address for console redirection and the serial device. External Serial Connector (Serial Device1 default) Specifies whether Serial Device 1, Serial Device 2, or Remote Access Device has access to the external serial connector. NOTE: Only Serial Device 2 can be used for Serial Over LAN (SOL). To use console redirection by SOL, configure the same port address for console redirection and the serial device. Failsafe Baud Rate (115200 default) Displays the failsafe baud rate used for console redirection. BIOS attempts to determine the baud rate automatically. This failsafe baud rate is used only if the attempt fails. This rate should not be adjusted. Remote Terminal Type Sets the remote console terminal type, either (VT100/VT220 default) VT100/VT220 or ANSI. Redirection After Boot (Enabled default) Enables or disables BIOS console redirection when the operating system is loaded. Using the System Setup Program and UEFI Boot Manager 47
