Configuring the planar BIOS

Use this procedure to configure the planar BIOS.

WARNING

There is an option to configure an Administrative password during BIOS configuration. The configuration of BIOS passwords is not recommended; however, local security policies might require that BIOS passwords be used. Use extreme caution if configuring BIOS Administrative passwords. If the password is lost or forgotten, it cannot be recovered, and the motherboard of the server must be replaced. See Nortel AS 5300 Security (NN42040-601).

WARNING

There is an option to configure a Power-on password during BIOS configuration. Do not configure Power-on passwords as this could possibly interfere with the restarting of servers.

Prerequisites

•The planar BIOS has been reset to the factory default settings.
