       The solterm program allows a user to make a remote serial connection over IPMI.  The  requires  that  the
       remote system support IPMI 2.0 Serial Over LAN.

<connectionparms>
              The  parameters  for  the  connection  depend  on the connection type.  These are all described in
              openipmi_conparms (7)

       -eescape_char
              The character to use to escape, or exit, the program.   Entering  this  chatacter  right  after  a
              newline  is  entered  causes  the  program to go into command mode.  A single character after this
              performs a command.  The default escape character is "~" as shown below.  Suppported commands are:

              ~.     Terminate the program

              ~B     Send a serial BREAK over the connection

              ~F     Flush all buffers

              ~R     Assert the Ring Indicator (RI) line

              ~r     Deassert the Ring Indicator (RI) line

              ~D     Assert DCD and DSR lines

              ~d     Deassert DCD and DSR lines

              ~C     Pause the output using CTS

              ~c     Put CTS under BMC control

              ~?     Help on escape commands

              ~~     Enter the escape character twice to send it.

       -notencrypted
              Do not encrypt the SOL data going over the connection.

       -notauthenticated
              Do not do integrity checks on the SOL data going over the connection.

       -bitrate
              Set the bitrate to the given value.  The default is whatever the BMC has set it to.

       -alerts
              This specifies what to do if a alert that requires a callout occurs on the line.

              succeed
                     specifies that serial/modem alerts are to succeed while SoL is active.

              deferred
                     specifies that serial/modem alerts are to be deferred for the duration of the SoL session.

              fail   specifies that serial/modem alerts automatically fail during the SoL session. This  is  the
                     default.

       -holdoff
              Specifies  that CTS, DTR, and DSR are to be deasserted at the start of the SoL session so that the
              configuration may be modifeid before the handshake is released.

       -v     Be more verbose.  Maybe specified multiple time for more output.

       -q     Be less verbose.  Maybe specified multiple time for less output.
