4.1.7 Console or I/O Redirection
The Console redirection or I/O redirection to a COM port allows to configure the BIOS through
the setup menu even in the absence of a VGA adapter. The following option is configurable
through the BIOS setup:
The serial port 1 is fully compliant to industry standard 16550 asynchronous communication
controllers and is integrated in the Glue Logic FPGA.
4.1.8 Serial Over LAN (SOL)
The BIOS writes to FPGA register in the COM port number where the console redirection is
completed.
The BIOS sets FPGA register 0x603 bit 0 to high (Serial reduction control register) to indicate
that the BIOS uses serial port 1 for SOL function. Further steps to initialize SOL is completed by
IPMC.
4.1.9 IPMI Support
The ATCA-7370 BIOS provides the following IPMI support:
 Checks if the IPMI controller is active. If not, it will display an appropriate error message.
 Reads self-test result from the IPMI controller display. It will display an error message if the
self-test fails.
 Sets initial timestamps for IPMI events
 Sends system firmware progress to the IPMI.
 Logs boot errors to the IPMI event log.
 Sends OS boot events.
 Reads slot information from the IPMI controller and fills the DMI structure Type 1 UUID.
