When you select menu option 1, Connect to the Remote Server's BMC, you are prompted for the BMC IP address and BMC login. After you enter the required information and make a successful connection, the internal state SLP is changed to "connected." If you select menu options 2, 3, or 4, and the application state is not "connected," you are prompted to connect to a BMC. Menu option 2 allows you to enable, disable, and configure the SOL defaults, including the minimum user privilege level required for activating SOL and the communication baud-rate. Menu options 3 and 4 allow you to establish a SOL remote console session through the SOL Proxy main menu. Menu option 3 establishes a SOL session without changing the remote system's state. This option is ideal for connecting to the Microsoft SAC/EMS or the Linux console. Menu option 4 reboots the remote managed system and establishes a SOL session.

SOL Proxy Main Menu
Example
The SOL Proxy main menu allows you to change the SOL settings of a
remote managed system’s BMC, reboot the remote BMC, or activate console
redirection.
When you select menu option 1,
Connect to the Remote Server’s BMC
, you
are prompted for the BMC IP address and BMC login. After you enter the
required information and make a successful connection, the internal state
SLP is changed to “connected.” If you select menu options 2, 3, or 4, and the
application state is not “connected,” you are prompted to connect to a BMC.
Menu option 2 allows you to enable, disable, and configure the SOL defaults,
including the minimum user privilege level required for activating SOL and
the communication baud-rate.
Menu options 3 and 4 allow you to establish a SOL remote console session
through the SOL Proxy main menu. Menu option 3 establishes a SOL session
without changing the remote system’s state. This option is ideal for connecting
to the Microsoft SAC/EMS or the Linux console. Menu option 4 reboots the
remote managed system and establishes a SOL session. This option is best
suited for performing BIOS setup and system configuration tasks.
