User contexts do not appear to work
Check with your network administrator. The full distinguished name of your user object must be in
the directory. Your login name is what appears after the first CN=. The remainder of the
distinguished name appears in one of the user context fields. User contexts are not case-sensitive.
However, anything else, including spaces are part of the user context.
Directory user does not logout after the directory timeout has expires
If you set the iLO 2 timeout to Infinite timeout, the remote console periodically pings the firmware
to verify that the connection exists. When this ping occurs, the iLO 2 firmware queries the Directory
for user permissions. This periodic query keeps the Directory connection active, preventing a timeout
and logging the user.
Troubleshooting Remote Console issues

•
Pop-up blocking applications that are set to prevent the automatic opening of new windows

programs before starting Remote Console or Virtual Serial Port.
