IP address

ip — specifies the specific IP address used to connect to the SOL Proxy. This item defines what

kind of connection can be accepted to establish a SOL Proxy telnet session. There are three

possible values:

INADDR_ANY — SOL Proxy accepts the telnet request to any system.

127.0.0.1 — SOL Proxy accepts the telnet request to the localhost.

IP address — SOL Proxy accepts the telnet request to the specified IP address.

For example:
ip=INADDR_ANY

Port binding

port — specifies the port at which the SOL Proxy listens for incoming connections. By default, the

port is set to 623 and can be modified by the user.
This item defines the port when you telnet SOL Proxy. If this item is absent, 623 is set as the

default port. For example:
port=623

Session Timeout

session_timeout — specifies the time in minutes before the SOL Proxy session times out.
If there is no keyboard activity for the specified timeout period, the telnet session and the SOL

session will be closed. The timeout value is specified in minutes and can be changed during SOL

Proxy installation. For example:
session_timeout=30

Power-off Timeout

power_off_timeout — specifies the time in seconds before the SOL Proxy gives up polling for the

managed system's power status. If the SOL Proxy issues the power off command and the system

does not power off within the specified interval, the SOL Proxy returns with a message, indicating

that the SOL Proxy was unable to power off the system due to the timeout interval.

NOTE:

When Reboot and Activate Console Redirection is selected and power for the remote managed

system is on, a power off IPMI command is issued. The power status is then continually monitored until

the power status reports “off.” If power status remains “on” longer than this timeout period, Reboot and

Activate Console Redirection reports an error and returns to the top-level menu. This timeout value is

specified in seconds and can be changed during SOL Proxy installation.

For example:
power_off_timeout=60
