USB support and functionality USB support HP provides both standard USB support and legacy USB support. Standard support is provided by the OS through the appropriate USB device drivers. Before the OS loads, HP provides support for USB devices through legacy USB support, which is enabled by default in the system ROM. HP hardware supports USB version 1.1 or 2.0, depending on the version of the hardware. Legacy USB support provides USB functionality in environments where USB support is normally not available. Specifically, HP provides legacy USB functionality for: • POST • RBSU • Diagnostics • DOS • Operating environments which do not provide native USB support For more information on ProLiant USB support, refer to the HP website (http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/platforms/usb-support.html). Internal USB functionality An internal USB connector is available for use with security key devices and USB drive keys. This solution provides for use of a permanent USB key installed in the internal connector, avoiding issues of clearance on the front of the rack and physical access to secure data. External USB functionality HP provides external USB support to enable local connection of USB devices for workstation blade administration, configuration, and diagnostic procedures. For more information, see "Using the HP cClass Blade SUV Cable (on page 40)." For additional security, external USB functionality can be disabled through RBSU. Disabling external USB support in RBSU disables the USB connectors on the HP c-Class Blade SUV Cable. Diagnostic tools 44
