Serial Over LAN (SOL) Support
The G10 probe provides Serial Over LAN (SOL) support that enables administrators to access
remote serial console ports securely on the IAP and IIC blades. The SOL access helps
administrators troubleshoot and debug hardware issues, view console messages, and monitor
blade boot-up sequences. Use of Serial Over LAN eliminates the need to maintain a terminal
server with the probes.
Perform the following to launch an SOL session:
Step
Action
1.
From any workstation, open a Command window.

A console window opens from which you can view console messages and
blade activities.
