● Support for DNS and LDAP
The iBMC supports domain name system (DNS) and Lightweight Directory
Application Protocol (LDAP) to implement domain management and directory
service.
● Image backup
The iBMC works in active/standby mode to ensure system reliability. If the
active iBMC is faulty, the standby iBMC takes over services immediately.
● Intelligent power management
The iBMC uses dynamic power saving to reduce operational expenditure
(OPEX).

12.2 BIOS
The basic input/output system (BIOS) is the most basic software loaded to a
computer hardware system. The BIOS provides an abstraction layer for the
operating system (OS) and the hardware to interact with the keyboard, display,
and other input/output (I/O) devices.
The BIOS data is stored on the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
ash memory. The
BIOS performs a power-on self-test (POST), initializes CPU and memory, checks
the I/O and boot device, and
nally boots the OS. The BIOS also provides the
advanced conguration and power interface (ACPI) and hot swap.
The Huawei Purley-based server is developed based on Insyde code base and uses
a proprietary BIOS. It provides a variety of in-band and out-of-band
conguration
functions as well as high scalability, and supports customization.
