Using the Boot Menu program
The Boot Menu program is a built-in configuration program that you can use to
temporarily redefine the first startup device without changing settings in the
Configuration/Setup Utility program.
To use the Boot Menu program, complete the following steps:
1. Turn off the server.
2. Restart the server.
3. Press F12.
4. Select the startup device.
The next time the server is started, it returns to the startup sequence that is set in
the Configuration/Setup Utility program.
Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller
The Ethernet controller is integrated on the I/O board. It provides an interface for
connecting to a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1 Gbps network and provides full-duplex
(FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception of data on
the network. If the Ethernet ports in the server support auto-negotiation, the
controller detects the data-transfer rate (10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 1000BASE-T)
and duplex mode (full-duplex or half-duplex) of the network and automatically
operates at that rate and mode.
You do not have to set any jumpers or configure the controller. However, you must
install a device driver to enable the operating system to address the controller. For
device drivers and information about configuring the Ethernet controller, see the
Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet Software
CD that comes with the server. To
find updated information about configuring the controller, complete the following
steps.
Note:
Changes are made periodically to the IBM Web site. The actual procedure

Using the baseboard management controller utility programs
Use the baseboard management controller utility programs to configure the
baseboard management controller, update baseboard management controller
firmware, and remotely manage a server.
Using the configuration utility program
Use the baseboard management controller configuration utility program to view or
change the baseboard management controller configuration settings and to save
the configuration to a file for use on multiple servers. The configuration utility is
located with the baseboard management controller firmware updates on the
firmware update diskette or CD. You can access the configuration utility after the
firmware update is started and completed or stopped before completing.
