14. Boot Option Retry
Option Values: Enabled
Disabled
Help Text:
If enabled, this continually retries non-EFI-based boot options without waiting for user
input.
Comments: This option is intended to keep retrying for cases where the boot devices
could possibly be slow to initially respond, e.g. if the device were “asleep” and did not wake
quickly enough. However, if none of the devices in the Boot Order ever
responds, the BIOS will
continue to reboot indefinitely.

15. USB Boot Priority
Option Values: Enabled
Disabled
Help Text:
If enabled, newly discovered USB devices are moved to the top of their boot device
category.
If disabled, newly discovered USB devices are moved to the bottom of their boot device
catergory.
Comments: This option enables or disables the “USB Reorder” functionality. USB
Boot Priority, if enabled, is intended for the case where a user wants to be able to plug in a USB
device and immediately boot to it, for example in case of a maintenance or System
Administration operation. If a User Password is installed, USB Boot Priority action is suspended
when a User Password is installed.

16. Static Boot Ordering
Option Values: Enabled
Disabled
Help Text:
[Disabled] - Devices removed from the system are deleted from Boot Order Tables.
[Enabled] - Devices removed have positions in Boot Order Tables retained for later
reinsertion.
Comments: When the option changes to “Enabled” from “Disabled”, it will enable
Static Boot Ordering (SBO) from the next boot onward, and also the current Boot Order will be
stored as the SBO template.
When the option changes from “Enabled” to “Disabled”, this will disable SBO and the SBO
template will be cleared.
Otherwise it will retain the current Enabled/Disabled state.
