HPE Server UEFI/Legacy ROM
Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) is an industry standard that provides better manageability and more secured
configuration than the legacy ROM while interacting with your server
at boot time. HPE ProLiant Gen10 servers have a UEFI Class 2
implementation and support both UEFI Mode (default) and Legacy BIOS Mode.
NOTE: The UEFI System Utilities tool is analogous to the HPE ROM-
Based Setup Utility (RBSU) of legacy BIOS. For more
information, please visit http://www.hpe.com/servers/uefi.
• UEFI enables numerous new capabilities specific to HPE ProLiant servers such as:
• Secure Boot and Secure Start enable for enhanced security
• Operating system specific functionality
• Support for > 2.2 TB (using GPT) boot drives
• USB 3.0 Stack
• Embedded UEFI Shell
• Mass Configuration Deployment Tool using iLO RESTful API that is Redfish API Conformant
• PXE boot support for IPv6 networks
• Workload Profiles for simple performance optimization
• UEFI Boot Mode only:
• TPM 2.0 Support
• NVMe Boot Support
• iSCSI Software Initiator Support.
• HTTP/HTTPs Boot support as a PXE alternative.
• Boot support for option cards that only support a UEFI option ROM
NOTE:
For UEFI Boot Mode, boot environment and OS image installations should be configured properly to support UEFI.
