SuperServer 1029P-MT/MTR User's Manual
AES-NI
Select Enable to use the Intel Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) New Instructions (NI) to
ensure data security. The options are Disable and Enable.
Advanced Power Management Configuration

 CPU P State Control
This feature allows the user to configure the following CPU power settings
Speedstep (Pstates)
Intel SpeedStep Technology allows the system to automatically adjust processor voltage and
core frequency to reduce power consumption and heat dissipation. The options are Disabled
and Enabled.
EIST PSD Funtion
This feature allows the user to choose between Hardware and Software to control the
processor's frequency and performance (P-state). In HW_ALL mode, the processor hardware
is responsible for coordinating the P-state, and the OS is responsible for keeping the P-state
request up to date on all logical processors. In SW_ALL mode, the OS Power Manager
is responsible for coordinating the P-state, and must initiate the transition on all Logical
Processors. In SW_ANY mode, the OS Power Manager is responsible for coordinating the
P-state and may initiate the transition on any Logical Processors.
Options available: HW_ALL/SW_ALL/SW_ANY. Default setting is HW_ALL.
Turbo Mode
This feature will enable dynamic control of the processor, allowing it to run above stock
frequency.
 Hardware PM State Control
Hardware P-States
This setting allows the user to select between OS and hardware-controlled P-states. Selecting
Native Mode allows the OS to choose a P-state. Selecting Out of Band Mode allows the
hardware to autonomously choose a P-state without OS guidance. Selecting Native Mode
with No Legacy Support functions as Native Mode with no support for older hardware.
CPU C State Control
Autonomous Core C-State
Enabling this setting allows the hardware to autonomously choose to enter a C-state based
on power consumption and clock speed.
