You receive three password prompts. After the third incorrect password, the connection ends and the
third login failure is recorded. The SSH login failure counter is set to 3.
The iLO firmware records an SSH failed login log entry, and sets the SSH login failure counter to 0.
iLO Service Port
The Service Port is a USB port with the label
iLO
on the front of ProLiant Gen10 servers and Synergy
Gen10 compute modules.
When you have physical access to a server, you can use the Service Port to do the following:
• Download the Active Health System Log to a supported USB flash drive.
When you use this feature, the connected USB flash drive is not accessible by the host operating
system.
• Connect a client (such as a laptop) with a supported USB to Ethernet adapter to access the iLO web
interface, remote console, CLI, iLO RESTful API, or scripts.
When you use the iLO Service Port:
• Actions are logged in the iLO Event Log.
• The server UID blinks to indicate the Service Port status.
You can also retrieve the Service Port status by using a REST client and the iLO RESTful API.
• You cannot use the Service Port to boot any device within the server, or the server itself.
• You cannot access the server by connecting to the Service Port.
• You cannot access the connected device from the server.
