FYI for Supermicro X11 boards the latest BMC firmware doesn't require =
Java, it works with HTML5.

The BIOS settings for enabling serial redirection on the X11SSHF are..:
 - Advanced -> Serial Port 2 Attribute =3D> SOL
 - Advanced -> Serial Port Console Redirection -> SOL/COM2 Console =
Redirection =3D> Enabled
 - Advanced -> Serial Port Console Redirection -> SOL/COM2 Console =
Redirection -> Settings
   - COM2 Bits per second =3D> 115200
   - COM2 Redirection After BIOS POST =3D> Always Enable

Annoyingly you can't use both physical serial ports *and* SOL (unlike X9 =
boards where SOL could be COM3)

PS with the 'virtual media' you can mount a FreeBSD ISO and do an =
install completely over the network.
