Advanced Screens

Note - The term BMC that might be displayed on some screens refers to the SP (service processor).

Figure 3 The Advanced Menu Screen

The Advanced screen provides access to the following configuration submenu screens:

CPU Configuration (see Figure 4.)
On-board SATA configuration (see Figure 5.)
Event Log Configuration (see Figure 8.)
I/O Virtualization (see Figure 9.)
IPMI Configuration (see Figure 10.)
Intel VT-d Configuration (see Figure 14.)
MPS Configuration (see Figure 15.)
Remote Access Configuration (see Figure 16.)
Trusted Computing (see Figure 17.)
USB Configuration (see Figure 18.)

Figure 4 The Advanced CPU Configuration Screen

The Configure advanced CPU settings is an Advanced submenu screen. The following table shows the read-only CPU-related information in the CPU Configuration screen.

CPU Configuration Read-Only Information
CPU manufacturer
CPU model and speed
CPU operating frequency
PCLK speed
Cache L1, L2, L3 sizes
Ratio States Unblocked
Ratio Actual Value
CPU Power

The following table shows the configurable fields in the CPU Configuration screen.

Note - Hardware prefetchers work well in workloads that traverse array and other regular data structures. The hardware prefetcher options (Hardware Prefetcher, Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch, and L1 Data Prefetcher) are disabled by default and should be disabled when running applications that perform aggressive software prefetching or for workloads with limited cache. For example, memory-intensive applications with high bus utilization could see a performance degradation if hardware prefetching is enabled.

Hardware Prefetcher
Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch
L1 Data Prefetcher
Data Reuse Optimization
Intel Virtualization Tech
Execute-Disable Bit Capability
