HP ROM-Based Setup Utility - Manual (Page 14)

Virtual Serial Port
The Virtual Serial Port option assigns the logical COM port number and associated default resources
used by the VSP. The VSP enables the iLO Management Controller to appear as a physical serial
port to support the BIOS Serial Console and the OS serial console.
Options include:
•
COM 1 (default for blade servers)
•
COM 2 (default for all servers except blades)
•
COM 3
•
Disabled
NOTE: The COM ports listed and the default setting vary depending on the server model.
For more information on iLO configurations, see the iLO user documentation on the HP website
