NOTE: Systems with iLO require version 1.05 iLO firmware or greater
to run BIOS Serial Console.

Keystroke Emulation

Because not all terminal emulation programs support function keys or special
characters, certain keystroke sequences are required for some commands.

Escape Sequences

BIOS Serial Console enables you to manually input unsupported keystrokes by
entering escape sequences. Each character must be entered within 2 seconds of
pressing and holding down the Esc key to emulate the escape sequence.
