The IDS-4210 Sensor

The IDS-4210 Sensor

The IDS 4210 sensor is a 1U rack mount appliance that can be connected to with a keyboard, mouse, and monitor or through the serial port located at the back of the device. The 4210 BIOS can redirect the entire console of the device to the serial through the following modifications. In order to make the following changes, a keyboard and monitor must be connected to the 4210 sensor, as the console redirection has not been configured yet. To redirect the console, use the following steps:

1. Boot or reboot the sensor.

2. During POST, press F2 when prompted to enter BIOS setup.

3. Click Serial Features on the System Management menu.

4. Enable Serial Console Redirection and change settings to match the following:

   Serial Port: COM1 3F8 IRQ4
   Baud Rate: 9600

5. Press Esc to return to the System Management menu.

6. Click Exit Saving Changes.

7. When asked to confirm the changes, press Y and then Enter.
