Intel® Server Board S2600GZ/GL TPS BIOS Setup Utility Comments: Information only. This is a display showing which Network Controllers on IO Modules are installed on the baseboard. Each of these IO Module NICs will be followed by a section including a group of options that are specific to the type of NIC, either as an Ethernet controller or an Infiniband* controller. This descriptive screen image shows an example of an InifiniBand* controller as IOM1. In a system with two IO Module connectors, an Infiniband* IO Module might be installed as either IOM1 or IOM2. Most boards have only one IO Module connector. In any case, an IO Module Type and following options section will only appear when an IO Module is installed, and a second IO Module Type and options section will only appear if there are two IO Modules installed.

NIC1 Controller NIC2 Controller Option Values: Enabled Disabled Help Text: Enable/Disable Onboard Network Controller. Comments: This will completely disable Onboard Network Controller NIC1 or NIC2, along with all included NIC Ports and their associated options. That controller's NIC Ports, Port PXE options, and Port MAC Address displays will not appear. This option only appears for onboard Ethernet controllers. It does not appear for onboard Infiniband* controllers. Ethernet controllers on IO Modules do not have a disabling function that can be controlled by BIOS, so there is no corresponding controller enable/disable option for an IOM Ethernet controller.

IOM1 Infiniband* Option ROM IOM2 Infiniband* Option ROM Option Values: Enabled Disabled Help Text: Enable/Disable Infiniband* Controller Option ROM and FlexBoot. Comments: This option will control whether the associated Infiniband* Controller Option ROM is executed by BIOS during POST. This will also control whether the Infiniband* controller FlexBoot program appears in the list of bootable devices. This option only appears for Onboard or IO Module Infiniband* controllers. It does not appear for Ethernet controllers. Back to [NIC Configuration Screen] - [PCI Configuration Screen] - [Advanced Screen] Revision 1.1 155 Intel order number G24881-004
