Using Telnet Virtual Console

Some Telnet clients on the Microsoft operating systems may not display the BIOS setup screen correctly when BIOS Virtual Console is set for VT100/VT220 emulation. If this issue occurs, change the BIOS console to ANSI mode to update the display. To perform this procedure in the BIOS setup menu, select Virtual Console > Remote Terminal Type > ANSI .

When you configure the client VT100 emulation window, set the window or application that is displaying the redirected Virtual Console to 25 rows x 80 columns to make sure correct text display. Else, some text screens may be garbled.

To use Telnet virtual console:

  1. Enable Telnet in Windows Component Services.
  2. Connect to the iDRAC7 using the command: telnet < IP address >:< port number >, where IP address is the IP address for the iDRAC7 and port number is the Telnet port number (if you are using a new port).
