4. Verify the following management port values:
Baud Rate
The default is 57600. Make sure that the baud rate matches the baud
rate of the device you are connecting to the management port on the
Remote Supervisor Adapter.
Dedicated to ASM
The default is Disabled. If you are using point-to-point protocol (PPP),
set this field to Enabled. If the value in this field is Enabled when the
server is restarted, the management port remains dedicated to system
management and is not returned to the operating system.
You can dedicate the integrated management port on the Remote
Supervisor Adapter to system management or share it with the
operating system. If the management port is dedicated to system
management, it serves only the Remote Supervisor Adapter and is
always available for dial-in or dial-out alerting purposes. You cannot
view the port using the operating system or any application.
