manager during its startup procedure. This TCP port can be changed on
the System Configuration screen, but we recommend that the initial value
determined by the LPAR manager be used.

Notes on Telnet or SSH Connection
•
You can change a port number to specify when connecting to a guest
screen through Telnet or SSH, which needs to be different from a port
number for LPAR manager. See

for details. Some port numbers may not be available depending on
the OS settings, account privilege, installation software, or network
environment. Check which port is available on the terminal and in the
network environment before changing the port number. When there is no
problem for use, it is recommended that you use a default port number
among serial numbers starting from 20801, which have been thoroughly
verified.
•
Only one terminal per LPAR is permitted to operate guest screens from
the virtual COM console. If a connection to two or more terminals is
attempted, the connection to the second or more terminals is disabled.
•
If the guest screen cannot be displayed while connecting to the virtual
COM console, check the serial console configuration.
•
If a LP IP address for IPv4 is not specified, you cannot disable Telnet
authentication. Select Enable for Telnet authentication or select SSH for
connection mode.
•
If Telnet user authentication is disabled, Telnet connections cannot be
established to LP IP addresses for IPv6.
•
If a communication failure occurs during a connection to a virtual COM
console, reconnection to that virtual COM console might become
impossible.
In such a case, specify "N" for the port setting of the affected virtual COM
console, and then return the setting to its previous value.
After doing so, reconnection will become possible after a certain amount
of time elapses (after a maximum of 17 minutes).
Notes on Guest Screen Operation
•
Although the virtual COM console can operate multiple LPARs
concurrently, the performance of consoles of other LPARs may decrease
with an increase in output data.
•
If a large amount of characters are pasted to a guest screen, a part of
characters may not be pasted. 256 or more characters per line for the
Windows command prompt, and 1024 or more characters per line for
Linux prompt cannot be pasted. In addition, if 1024 or more characters
are pasted for the Linux prompt, Linux may hang up or unexpected
screen operation may occur. The number of characters that can be pasted
stably without being lost is less than 256 per line for the Windows
command prompt, less than 1024 per line for the Linux prompt, and less
than 10000 per line for editing programs including the Vi editor. When
