If the optional Dedicated Server Management NIC is not used then the traffic can only go
through the onboard Integrated BMC-shared NIC and will share network bandwidth with the
host system. Advanced manageability features are supported over all NIC ports enabled for
server manageability.
7.1 Keyboard, Video, and Mouse (KVM) Redirection
The BMC firmware supports keyboard, video, and mouse redirection (KVM) over LAN. This
feature is available remotely from the embedded web server as a Java applet. This feature is
only enabled when the Intel
®
RMM4-lite is present. The client system must have a Java Runtime
Environment (JRE) version 6.0 or later to run the KVM or media redirection applets.
The Integrated BMC supports an embedded KVM application (Remote Console) that can be
launched from the embedded web server from a remote console. USB1.1 or USB 2.0 based
mouse and keyboard redirection are supported. It is also possible to use the KVM-redirection
(KVM-r) session concurrently with media-redirection (media-r). This feature allows a user to
interactively use the keyboard, video, and mouse (KVM) functions of the remote server as if the
user were physically at the managed server.
