SUPERSERVER 5017C-MTF/5017C-MTRF User's Manual

PCI Slot SMB Enable

Use Jumpers JI2C1/JI2C2 to enable PCI SMB (System Management Bus) support to improve system management for the PCI slots. Default is disabled. See the table on the right for jumper settings.

LAN Port Enable/Disable

Use JPL1/JPL2 to enable or disable LAN Ports 1 and 2 on the motherboard. See the table on the right for jumper settings. The default setting is enabled.

USB Wake-Up

Use the JPUSB1 jumper to wake your system by pressing a key on a USB keyboard or clicking USB mouse. This jumper is used together with the USB Wake-Up feature in the BIOS. Enable this jumper and the USB feature in the BIOS to wake-up your system via USB devices. The default setting is enabled.

BMC Enable/Disable

JPB is used to enable or disable the BMC (Baseboard Management Control) chip and the onboard IPMI connection. This jumper is used together with the IPMI set- tings in the BIOS. The default position is on pins 1 and 2 to Enable BMC. See the table on the right for jumper settings.

Watch Dog Enable

Watch Dog is a system monitor that can reboot the system when a software ap- plication hangs. Close pins 1-2 to reset the system if an application hangs. Close pins 2-3 to generate a non-maskable interrupt signal for the application that hangs. See the table on the right for jumper settings. Watch Dog must also be enabled in the BIOS.
