In addition to collecting MAC addresses, terminal servers can also be used to view terminals from a single point from POST and on into the operatingsystem.
除了搜集mac地址，终端服务器还能用来在一个点查看终端从启动自检一直到进入操作系统的情况。

All of the examples that will follow use OpenIndiana as the operatingsystem (a community maintained fork of Open Solaris), so the commands and terminal interaction will reflect that environment.
To set up a serial console under Windows XP or Vista operatingsystem, I recommend downloading PuTTY, a terminal emulation program for Windows available at no cost (see Resources).
