Select this choice to exit from the Configuration/Setup Utility program. If you have not saved the changes that you have made in the settings, you are asked whether you want to save the changes or exit without saving them. Using passwords You can use any combination of up to seven characters (A - Z, a - z, and 0 - 9) for the power-on (user) password or the administrator password. If you set both a power-on password and an administrator password, you can type either password at the password prompt that is displayed as you start the server. However, if you want to change the settings in the Configuration/Setup Utility program, you must type the administrator password to access the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu. If you type the power-on password, you have access to only the limited Configuration/Setup Utility menu. Keep a record of the passwords in a secure place. If you forget the power-on password or administrator password, you can regain access to the server through one of the following methods: v If you have forgotten the power-on password and an administrator password is set, type the administrator password at the power-on password prompt. Start the Configuration/Setup Utility program and change the power-on password. v Remove the battery and then install the battery. Using the Boot Menu program The Boot Menu program is a built in, menu-driven 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. Restart the server. 2. Press F12. 3. 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 Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet controller The Ethernet controller is integrated on the system 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 port in the server supports 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. 66 ThinkServer TD100 and TD100x Types 4203, 4204, 4205, 4206, 6398, 6399, 6419, and 6429: User Guide
