Intel® Server Board S2600CP and Intel® Server System P4000CP Platform Management Intel® Server Board S2600CP and Server System P4000CP TPS The BMC supports an embedded KVM application (Remote Console) that can be launched from the embedded web server from a remote console. USB1.1 or USB 2.0 based mouse and keyboard redirection are supported. It is also possible to use the KVM-redirection (KVM-r) session concurrently with media-redirection (media-r). This feature allows a user to interactively use the keyboard, video, and mouse (KVM) functions of the remote server as if the user were physically at the managed server. KVM redirection console support the following keyboard layouts: English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Russian, and Spanish. KVM redirection includes a "soft keyboard" function. The "soft keyboard" is used to simulate an entire keyboard that is connected to the remote system. The "soft keyboard" functionality supports the following layouts: English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Russian, and Spanish. The KVM-redirection feature automatically senses video resolution for best possible screen capture and provides high-performance mouse tracking and synchronization. It allows remote viewing and configuration in pre-boot POST and BIOS setup, once BIOS has initialized video. Other attributes of this feature include: 1. Encryption of the redirected screen, keyboard, and mouse 2. Compression of the redirected screen. 3. Ability to select a mouse configuration based on the OS type. 4. supports user definable keyboard macros. KVM redirection feature supports the following resolutions and refresh rates:  640x480 at 60Hz, 72Hz, 75Hz, 85Hz, 100Hz  800x600 at 60Hz, 72Hz, 75Hz, 85Hz  1024x768 at 60Hx, 72Hz, 75Hz, 85Hz  1280x960 at 60Hz  1280x1024 at 60Hz  1600x1200 at 60Hz  1920x1080 (1080p),  1920x1200 (WUXGA)  1650x1080 (WSXGA+) 6.5.2.1 Force-enter BIOS Setup KVM redirection can present an option to force-enter BIOS Setup. This enables the system to enter F2 setup while booting which is often missed by the time the remote console redirects the video. 6.5.3 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. Once mounted, the remote device appears just like a local device to the server, allowing system administrators or users to install software (including operating systems), copy files, update BIOS, and so on, or boot the server from this device. The following capabilities are supported:  The operation of remotely mounted devices is independent of the local devices on the server. Both remote and local devices are useable in parallel.  Either IDE (CD-ROM, floppy) or USB devices can be mounted as a remote device to the server. 84 Revision 1.2 Intel order number G26942-003

6.5.2.1
Force-enter BIOS Setup
KVM redirection can present an option to force-enter BIOS Setup. This enables the system to
enter F2 setup while booting which is often missed by the time the remote console redirects the
video.

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.
Once mounted, the remote device appears just like a local device to the server, allowing system
