Virtual Serial Port

The Virtual Serial Port option assigns the logical COM Port number and associated default resources
used by the Virtual Serial Port. When enabled, the option provides remote access through the iLO
management controller to BIOS Serial Console.

For more information about iLO configurations, see the iLO user documents on the HP website
(

).

Optional LPT Mode Support

The Optional LPT Mode Support option assigns the local port number and associated default
resources to the selected physical LPT. The menu includes the following options:

SPP Extended

EPP 1.9

ECP w/EPP

The OS might overwrite the setting.

Integrated Diskette Controller

The Integrated Diskette Controller option is a simple toggle setting that enables or disables the
diskette drive. When this option is disabled, the server cannot read from or write to the drive.
Therefore, Diskette Write Control and Diskette Boot Control are irrelevant when Integrated Diskette
Controller is disabled.

NUMLOCK Power-On State

The NUMLOCK Power-On State option is a simple toggle setting that enables or disables the
power-up state of the NUMLOCK key. When the NUMLOCK key is enabled, the machine powers
up with the NUMLOCK key active.
