take effect. A reboot will occur when you exit the PXESelect utility if the
Personality setting has changed since the last boot.
Advanced Mode Support
Advanced Mode is a driver compatibility option. With Advanced Mode enabled, you
can run Advanced Mode-aware drivers that provide advanced capabilities as listed in
Table 2-1. With Advanced Mode disabled, you can run older legacy inbox drivers that
are not Advanced Mode-aware with the latest firmware versions.
Note: Advanced Mode support is enabled by default on OCe11100-series 2-port and
4-port controllers and the LPe16202/OCe15100 CFA. On 4-port controllers, the
Advanced Mode setting is not provided in the PXESelect/HII utilities. The
Advanced Mode setting on these platforms is implicitly enabled and Advanced
Mode-aware drivers must be installed. Compatibility with legacy drivers
requires that Advanced Mode support be disabled on 2-port controllers.
