Using the Configuration/Setup Utility Program
Date and Time
Select this choice to set the system date and time.
The system time is in a 24-hour format: hour/minute/second. The
system date is in standard format for your country. For example, in
the United States, the format is MM/DD/YYYY (Month/Day/Year).
Select Date and Time; then, use the Left Arrow (
←
) or Right Arrow
(
→
) key to advance through each data field. Type the new
information; the system saves the information as you enter it.
System Security
Several security features are available to help you secure your server
and the information that you store in it. To control access to your
server, you can implement the security features, such as adding
passwords, and securing IDE devices and diskette drives.
Using the Power-On Password Menu
The power-on password can deter unauthorized access to the
system. When you set the power-on password, you can choose one
of three password prompt modes.
On
The system prompts the user for the power-on password
during startup. If you have a mouse connected to the
mouse port, it will remain locked until you enter the
power-on password.
Notes:
1. If Update POST/BIOS from network is enabled, you
cannot select On. If the power-on password mode is
set to On when Update POST/BIOS from network is
enabled, it resets automatically to Dual.
2. Whenever the power-on password function is set, the
system does not support any locally or remotely
scheduled shutdowns or restarts. Therefore, be sure to
use the power-on password protection (lockout
function) that your operating system provides.
