Emergency Management Port
For modem support, the server must use a Hayes compatible
14400 bps modem. The modem must be on the NT Hardware
Compatibility List provided by Microsoft. The server modem must
be set in auto-answer mode for the EMP to be able to connect to
it.
Setting Up the Server for the EMP
To use the EMP, you must configure the server's BIOS with
specific settings. These settings take place in two submenus of
the BIOS Server menu, the System Management Submenu and
the Console Redirect Submenu. The earlier BIOS settings section
shows all available options. This section focuses on those
settings that must be configured to use the EMP.
System Management Submenu
All EMP related settings occur from the System Management
Submenu of the Server main menu. Change only the items
below; all other default settings should remain the same.
EMP Password
: Anytime you attempt to initiate a connection, a
prompt for the user password appears. If you never set up the
EMP password, anyone can access the EMP by clicking OK
through the password prompt.
In the EMP Password area of the System Management Submenu,
type in a password of up to 8 alphanumeric characters. If a beep
is heard, the password was not accepted and a different password
must be entered.
EMP Access Modes
: Choose either Disabled, Pre-boot, or Always
Active, depending on the type of EMP access needed. The tables
above show what is available with a given setting.
EMP Restricted Mode Access
: Set Restricted Mode to either
enabled or disabled as needed. If in enabled mode, this means
that the EMP's server control options, Power On/Off and Reset,
are unavailable. In disabled mode, these same server control
options are available.
EMP Direct Connect/Modem Mode
: Select Direct Connect if a
null modem serial cable directly connects the server's COM 2 port
to the EMP client machine. If they are connected via a modem,
select Modem Mode.
