Using Console Redirection
Console redirection allows you to view the NAS system's power-on self-test (POST) and change BIOS settings from a
client system. Console redirection redirects keyboard input and text output through the serial port. Graphic output is not
redirected. This section describes the simplest connection possible: connecting to a system with a serial cable.
Minimum Hardware and Connection Requirements
To use console redirection, you must have the following:
An available serial port (COM port) on a client system. (This port must not conflict with any other ports on the
system.)
An available serial port (COM 1) on the NAS system.
NOTE:
Console redirection is enabled by default in the NAS system BIOS.
The serial cable provided with your NAS system.
Hyperterminal installed on the client system. If Hyperterminal is not installed on the client system, you can install it
from your operating system CD.
