serial port output- VSP - iLO

[Geoff Buckingham]

You want something like:

# The 'dialup' keyword identifies dialin lines to login, fingerd etc.
ttyd0   "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600"   dialup  off secure
ttyd1   "/usr/libexec/getty std.115200" vt100  on secure 

In /etc/ttys

Subject: serial port output- VSP - iLO

Hi all,

I'm having a hard time figuring out how to get a serial text console via
the "remote serial console" 
in the ilo web-frontend on a Dl 380G5 with iLO2.
Its my first time with HP and serial console. Sorry for the stupid
questions.
Is there a howto/manual how to do that for freebsd?
What's the difference between the UART Ports and the iLO 2 Virtual
Service Port?
Do I really have to modify "loader.conf and device.hints" to match the
values for
"iLO 2 Virtual Serial Port      COM2 0x2F8 IRQ 3"
and build a custom boot binary?
I tried that and now see the bootmessages until the network interface
gets loaded. and then all output stops.
Theoretically I should be able to connect to she iLO Card via ssh an
then type "VSP" and I should be presentetd a fully funktional console to
work with, or am I misunderstanding something there?


Thanks a lot

George
