My remote hosts' management port is serial console over LAN.
When connect by ssh manually, I use ops account connect to remote hosts,

Now, I use ansible -m ping to test reachable, it reports:
"Authentication or permission failure. In some cases, you may have been
able to authenticate and did not have permissions on the remote directory.
Consider changing the remote temp path in ansible.cfg to a path rooted in

yes, it should report this error, because this is not real ssh session,
it is console.
is there any method to modify the reachable test command? or do you have
any suggestion for serial console over LAN?
Ansible expects to run python scripts remotely, so it requires a transport
(SSH) and the ability to run python.
In your case I assume you connect over SSH to an out-of-band management
board (using its own credentials) then get a serial console and then you
have to log on again on the console prompt.
This is not supported by Ansible at the moment, but is not impossible to
implement. Although there are pitfalls you have to consider (eg. someone
already logged in on that same console, or not having properly logged out
due to unexpected disconnect).
