You can also view the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) and Trusted Cryptographic Module (TCM) settings.

Depending on your specific system configuration, additional setup items may be displayed. However, some BIOS setup options may be shown on the BIOS Setup screen that are not accessible in Server Administrator.

For 12G systems, the configurable BIOS features are grouped as specific categories. The categories include System Information, Memory Settings, System Profile Settings, Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) Boot Settings, Network Interface Controller cards, One-Time Boot, and Slot Disablement. For example, on the System BIOS Settings page, when you click the Memory Settings link , the features pertaining to the system memory appear. You can view or modify the settings by navigating to the respective categories.

You can set a BIOS Setup password, on theBIOS Setup - System Security page. You must enter the password to enable and modify the BIOS settings. Else, the BIOS settings appear in a read-only mode. You must restart the system after setting the password.

When pending values from the previous session exist or the inband configuration is disabled from an out-of-band interface, Server Administrator does not allow BIOS Setup configuration.
