10. Video Console Redirection (KVM over IP)
Video Console Redirection is a new feature included in Supermicro IPMI. In the Video Console Redirection
tab, the remote screen will be redirected to IPMIView if this function is enabled. BIOS POST, BIOS settings,
DOS, Windows or Linux OS screens can all be redirected to IPMIView. Furthermore, it provides a drive
redirection function for mounting your local device as a virtual device for a remote managed system. The local
device could be a CD-ROM or a hard drive and could be accessed from the remote managed system.
Figure 10-1 show sample screenshots of Video Console redirection. The screen of a remote managed system
will be redirected to IPMIView. It will appear to you just as if you are sitting in front of the remote system.
