Abstract

Embodiments of systems and methods for providing configurable video redirection in a data center are discussed. In an embodiment, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include a Baseband Management Controller (BMC); and a memory coupled to the BMC, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the BMC, cause the BMC to: receive a request from a remote client, where the request follows a first protocol; select one of a plurality of redirection components available to the IHS to populate a framebuffer with video frames using a second protocol; retrieve the video frames from the framebuffer; and transmit a response to the remote client following the first protocol, where the response comprises the video frames.
