@networkBob Can’t really find much on the board, can you see a header to clear BIOS Password ? If not you would require to re-program the BIOS chip, I’ve done quite a few on Security Appliances and Laptops.

Regards.

I think you may be replying to an old post there.

Most of that has been solved or at least understood at this point.

[VioletDragon]

@stephenw10 My bad. Sorry about that, I saw the post on a email notification so thought I’d chime in.

Regards.

Thanks everyone for the info! I realized leter that the PS was on that image. jejejje
Another question. It make sense to use SATA port with a SSD instead the MSATA? I saw that we can disable the MSATA PORT, so we can test on the SSD without buying another disk or removing the original.

[stephenw10]

Yes, if you have a spare SSD or mSATA drive you can just swap it in and retain the original driver and OS.

So now my M470 works flawlessly with the SSD disk but I have two issues:

1. The names of the interfaces: IG0 and so on BUT begining from the PCI MODULE: so my port 0 on the front of the M470 is IGB08 and so on. The extra module with 6 ports is 0 to 6
2. The external module, works and is detected BUT when I connect the network to these ports, the system dont detect the conection ever.

Have you the same issues?
TNX

[stephenw10]

Yes, the ports in the add-on module are parsed first. I'm not aware of a six port module though. I've seen the 8 port 1G module and 4 port 10G module.

[it.adminpmaria]

@stephenw10 Sorry my mistake, it's 8 port.
Apparently works well because it detects (first) but when I connect the cables the interface never detects the conection in any of the 8 ports.

[stephenw10]

Like no link LEDs? ifconfig never shows the link as up?

[it.adminpmaria]

@stephenw10 Done! I was the port mapping on the module.

Perfect!

[it.adminpmaria]

@it-adminpmaria-santcugat-org Bad things happends if you remove the module.

[nicknitro]

@it-adminpmaria-santcugat-org for safety measures I suggest you to install and configure everything without the module, then you plug it in and configure the extra ports. Safety measures first

[stephenw10]

Adding the module will change the NIC order if you have already assigned them.

[it.adminpmaria]

@nicknitro Bad news, when you start without the module and put the module later, the mapping of the interfaces change to the schema that I show you later.
