    Eventually, you are left with no choice but to ship the board back to the manufacturer. Lanner understands this pain and has empowered our products with the Dual BIOS feature. Normally, the Primary BIOS is used to boot the OS during powering up; when Primary BIOS is down, the Recovery BIOS automatically jumps in to boot up the OS for the User to take further steps such as performing data backup and BIOS upgrade.
  • Page 122 NCA-5710 User Manual Few things can shut down a computer as completely as a corrupted BIOS. With Dual BIOS feature, you will be guaranteed to enter a healthy OS to perform thorough troubleshooting before the situation is irreparable. Dual BIOS features two physical BIOS ROMs soldered onto the motherboard, carrying two separate BIOS images.
  • Page 123 Appendix B: Dual BIOS Introduction On POST screen, the Boot Bios information will display the BIOS used for this bootup. With the Recovery BIOS at work, it can be asserted that the Primary BIOS is having such severe problem that it failed to function. Before you make certain the BIOS chip is completely corrupted, it is definitely sensible to try the last resort—updating BIOS.

  • Page 125 “treat a PCIe end-point device as a Hot-pluggable one.” To achieve this functionality, Lanner has implemented a methodology that involves in both hardware (Hot-plug controller IC) and software implementation (both BIOS and kernel) support, not only successfully utilizing this functionality in NCA-5710’s architecture but allowing for combined operation...
  • Page 126 NCA-5710 User Manual Note It is suggested that the hot-plug capability of a PCIe port remain “Disabled” until you literally need to replace the module in it. This serves the same purpose of disabling this function by factory default—to reserve CPU resources to allocate for more critical tasks.

  • Page 129 Appendix C: PCIe Hot-Swap In a typical PCIe-based system, the enumeration and resource allocation algorithms performed by the CPU during the very first initialization will fix the PCIe topology, meaning that the configuration of the PCIe modules first installed in the slot is locked down and not allowed for alternation. Considering this limitation, for hot-swapping, it is strongly advised that you always replace a PCIe module with one of the same link width.
  • Page 130 NCA-5710 User Manual Console redirection lets you monitor and configure a system from a remote terminal computer by re-directing keyboard input and text output through the serial port. The following steps illustrate how to use this feature. The BIOS of the system allows the redirection of the console I/O to a serial port. With this configured, you can remotely access the entire boot sequence through a console port.
