The IPMI EEPROMs pre-programmed at the factory should always be used.
Programming on board is usually unnecessary, and is recommended only for expert
users, as misconfiguration could result in unpredictable behavior.


When programming the EEPROMs on-board, the Zircon PM must be held in the reset state by installing
the IRST jumper on the J7 header (see Table 8). Table 25

shows the I
