Here is my configuration for SuperMicro boards: # loader.conf console="comconsole vidconsole" comconsole_speed="115200" comconsole_port="0x2F8" boot_multicons="YES" # /etc/ttys ttyu1 "/usr/libexec/getty std.115200" vt100 on secure Depending on your Board the IPMI SoL is either COM2 oder COM3 by default. My config snippets assume COM2 (0x2F8). If you board still has two physical COM ports the IPMI SoL moves to COM3 (0x3E8) and ttyu2.
