ioconfig
Command
Shell> ioconfig
Deconfigure or reconfigure IO components or settings
IOCONFIG [fast_init|wol [on|off]]
fast_init Specifies device connection policy setting
wol Specifies System Wake-On-LAN setting
on|off Specifies to configure or deconfigure a feature or component
Note:
1. If fast_init is enabled, firmware will connect only the minimum set of
devices during boot. This feature might cause boot failure; disable this
feature if failure occurs.
2. Any pending Wake-On-LAN request will not be cleared until reboot if
the setting is changed to disabled.
System will clear pending Wake-On-LAN requests each time the system
reboots if the setting is disabled.
