Serial Over LAN
Serial over LAN (SOL) is a packet format and protocol defined in the IPMI v2.0
specification for transmitting serial port data over Ethernet using IPMI over LAN
(RMCP+) messages. This two-way redirection of a blade’s serial port data over Ethernet
is independent of the operating system or any applications executing on it. The EFI
BIOS also supports redirection of its console over a serial port, which can be redirected
over the network for remote access.
The SOL mechanism, coupled with an SOL client utility executing on a remote node,
allows the viewing of serial port data from any IPMI v2.0 based, SOL-enabled blade,
thus providing a virtual remote terminal server for accessing the blade’s serial port
character stream.

The SOL implementation on the Intel NetStructure
definition in Section 15 of the IPMI v2.0 specification.
Serial over LAN (SOL) enables suitably designed blades and servers to transparently
redirect a serial character stream of a baseboard UART to/from a remote client via LAN
over RMCP+ sessions. This enables users at remote consoles to access the serial port of
a blade/server and interact with a text-based EFI BIOS console, operating system,
command line interfaces, and serial text-based applications.
