• Disabling support for the default embedded Ethernet port or 5706/5707 adapters
  This topic describes how to disable console support for either the embedded Ethernet port or add-on 5706/5707 adapters, or both. These options do not disable the port or adapter, but makes them ineligible as a console-supporting resource. Also, this support is only available on servers that are not managed by a Hardware Management Console (HMC).
• Using the console service functions (65+21)
  Only use the console service functions (65+21) when you encounter an unexpected console failure and there are no other workstations available for recovery or resolution.
• Operations Console properties window
  Verify and change information about the server and connection configurations using the Properties window.
• Operations Console user interface
  Operations Console allows the user more flexibility when interacting with Operations Console and the graphical user interface it provides. By using these features, you can customize the Operations Console window so that you can view and interact with the information most important to you.
