Configuring iDRAC to use SOL using RACADM
To configure IPMI Serial over LAN (SOL):
1. Enable IPMI Serial over LAN using the command.
racadm set iDRAC.IPMISol.Enable 1
2. Update the IPMI SOL minimum privilege level using the command.
racadm set iDRAC.IPMISol.MinPrivilege <level>
Parameter Privilege level
<level> = 2 User
<level> = 3 Operator
<level> = 4 Administrator
NOTE: The IPMI SOL minimum privilege level determines the minimum privilege to activate IPMI SOL. For more
information, see the IPMI 2.0 specification.
3. Update the IPMI SOL baud rate using the command.
racadm set iDRAC.IPMISol.BaudRate <baud_rate>
NOTE: To redirect the serial console over LAN, make sure that the SOL baud rate is identical to the managed
system’s baud rate.
Parameter Allowed values (in bps)
<baud_rate> 9600, 19200, 57600, and 115200.
4. Enable SOL for each user using the command.
racadm set iDRAC.Users.<id>.SolEnable 2
Parameter
Description
<id> Unique ID of the user
NOTE: To redirect the serial console over LAN, ensure that the SOL baud rate is identical to the baud rate of the
managed system.
