Slot Security Allows you to Enable/Disable Option ROM Download for each slot. Selective disabling of Option
ROM downloads can help manage limited Option ROM space. Limit PCIe Frequency to Gen1,
Gen2, Gen3. Runs slot at Gen1, Gen2, or Gen3 frequency.
Network Boot Enables/disables the computer’s ability to boot from an operating system installed on a network
server. (Feature available on NIC models only; the network controller must be either a PCI
expansion card or embedded on the system board.) Default is enabled.
System IDs Allows you to set:
●
Asset tag (18-byte identifier), a property identification number assigned by the company to
the computer.
●
Ownership tag (80-byte identifier) displayed during POST.
●
Universal Unique Identifier (UUID) number. The UUID can only be updated if the current
chassis serial number is invalid. (These ID numbers are normally set in the factory and are
used to uniquely identify the system.)
●
Keyboard locale setting for System ID entry.
Master Boot Record
Security
Enables/disables Master Boot Record (MBR) security.
The MBR contains information needed to successfully boot from a disk and to access the data
stored on the disk. Master Boot Record Security may prevent unintentional or malicious changes
to the MBR, such as those caused by some viruses or by the incorrect use of certain disk utilities.
It also allows you to recover the "last known good" MBR, should changes to the MBR be detected
when the system is restarted.
When MBR Security is enabled, the BIOS prevents any changes being made to the MBR of the
current bootable disk while in MS-DOS or Windows Safe Mode.
NOTE: Most operating systems control access to the MBR of the current bootable disk; the
BIOS cannot prevent changes that may occur while the operating system is running.
Restores the backup Master Boot Record to the current bootable disk. Default is disabled.
Only appears if all of the following conditions are true:
●
MBR security is enabled
●
A backup copy of the MBR has been previously saved
●
The current bootable disk is the same disk from which the backup copy was saved
CAUTION: Restoring a previously saved MBR after a disk utility or operating system has
modified the MBR, may cause the data on the disk to become inaccessible. Only restore a
previously saved MBR if you are confident that the current bootable disk MBR has been corrupted
or infected with a virus.

●
Data Execution Prevention—(Enable/Disable). Helps prevent operating system security
breaches. Default is enabled.
●
SVM CPU Virtualization—(Enable/Disable). Controls the virtualization features of the
processor. Changing this setting requires hat you turn off the computer and then turn it back
on. Default is disabled.
●
Virtualization Technology (VTx)—(Enable/Disable). Controls the virtualization features of the
processor. Changing this setting requires that you turn off the
computer and then turn it back
on. Default is disabled.
●
Virtualization Technology Directed I/O (VTd)— (Enable/Disable). Controls virtualization DMA
remapping features of the chipset. Changing this setting requires that you turn off the
computer and then turn it back on. Default is disabled.
●
Trusted Execution Technology—(Enable/Disable). Controls the underlying processor and
chipset features needed to support a virtual appliance. Changing this setting requires that
