and logs an error when a system error (SERR) occurs. This can

 

be one of the following:

 

DisabledThe BIOS does not generate an NMI or log an

 

 

error when a SERR occurs.

 

EnabledThe BIOS generates an NMI and logs an error

 

 

when a SERR occurs. You must enable this setting if you

 

 

want to enable .

Assert NMI on PERR

Whether the BIOS generates a non-maskable interrupt (NMI)

 

and logs an error when a processor bus parity error (PERR)

 

occurs. This can be one of the following:

 

DisabledThe BIOS does not generate an NMI or log an

 

 

error when a PERR occurs.

 

EnabledThe BIOS generates an NMI and logs an error

 

 

when a PERR occurs. You must enable to use this setting.

Console Redirection

Allows a serial port to be used for console redirection during

 

POST and BIOS booting. After the BIOS has booted and the

 

operating system is responsible for the server, console redirection

 

is irrelevant and has no effect. This can be one of the following:

 

DisabledNo console redirection occurs during POST.

 

Enables console redirection on serial port A during

 

 

POST.

 

Note

of the Quiet Boot logo screen during POST.

Flow Control

Whether a handshake protocol is used for flow control. Request

 

to Send / Clear to Send (RTS/CTS) helps to reduce frame

 

collisions that can be introduced by a hidden terminal problem.

 

This can be one of the following:

 

NoneNo flow control is used.

 

RTS-CTSRTS/CTS is used for flow control.

 

Note

This setting must match the setting on the remote

 

 

terminal application.
