3. On the Welcome page, type a timeout value (in minutes) in the field that is<br />

provided. The IMM will log you off of the Web interface if your browser is<br />

inactive for the number of minutes that you entered for the timeout value.<br />

Enabling the Intel Gigabit Ethernet Utility program<br />

The Intel Gigabit Ethernet Utility program is part of the server firmware. You can<br />

use it to configure the network as a startable device, and you can customize where<br />

the network startup option appears in the startup sequence. Enable and disable the<br />

Intel Gigabit Ethernet Utility program from the Setup utility.<br />

Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller<br />

The Ethernet controllers are integrated on the system board. They provides an<br />

interface for connecting to a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1 Gbps network and provides<br />

full-duplex (FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception<br />

of data on the network. If the Ethernet ports in the server supports auto-negotiation,<br />

the controllers detect the data-transfer rate (10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or<br />

1000BASE-T) and duplex mode (full-duplex or half-duplex) of the network and<br />

automatically operates at that rate and mode.<br />

You do not have to set any jumpers or configure the controller. However, you must<br />

install a device driver to enable the operating system to address the controller. To<br />

find updated information about configuring the controllers, complete the following<br />

steps.<br />

Note: Changes are made periodically to the IBM Web site. The actual procedure<br />

might vary slightly from what is described in this document.<br />

1. Go to http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/.<br />

2. Under Product support, click System x.<br />

3. Under Popular links, click Software and device drivers.<br />

4. From the Product family menu, select System x3200 M3 and click Go.<br />

Enabling and configuring Serial over LAN (SOL)<br />

Establish a Serial over LAN (SOL) connection to manage servers from a remote<br />

location. You can remotely view and change the BIOS settings, restart the server,<br />

identify the server, and perform other management functions. Any standard Telnet<br />

client application can access the SOL connection.<br />

To enable and configure the server for SOL, you must update and configure the<br />

UEFI code; update and configure the integrated management module (IMM)<br />

firmware; update and configure the Ethernet controller firmware; and enable the<br />

operating system for an SOL connection.<br />

UEFI update and configuration<br />

To update and configure the UEFI code to enable SOL, complete the following<br />

steps:<br />

1. Update the UEFI code:<br />

a. Download the latest version of the UEFI code from http://www.ibm.com/<br />

systems/support/.<br />
