Configure the UEFI (BIOS) Settings
Set-up Utility Overview The set-up utility is a hardware configuration program built into the universal
extensible firmware interface (UEFI). In this chapter, UEFI replaces Basic
Input/Output System (BIOS) to describe the system firmware except where
BIOS is specifically used, such as on a graphical interface.
You can run the set-up utility to do the following:
• Change the system configuration.
• Set the time and date as part of a commissioning step.
• Redefine communication ports to help prevent any conflicts.
• Read the current amount of system memory.
• Change the boot drive order.
• Set or change the password or make other changes to the security
settings.
