• Must enter the user password to exit secure mode.
If only the supervisor password is set, you:
• Must enter the supervisor password to enter BIOS Setup or the
SSU.
• Must enter the supervisor password to boot the server if Password
on Boot is enabled in either the BIOS Setup or SSU.
• Must enter the supervisor password to exit secure mode.
If both passwords are set, you:
• May enter the user password to enter BIOS Setup or the SSU.
However, you will not be able to change many of the options.
• Must enter the supervisor password if you want to enter BIOS
Setup or the SSU and have access to all of the options.
• May enter either password to boot the server if Password on Boot
is enabled in either the BIOS Setup or SSU.

Secure Mode
Configure and enable the secure boot mode by using the SSU. When
secure mode is in effect:
• You can boot the server and the operating system will run, but you
must enter the user password to use the keyboard or mouse.
• You cannot turn off system power or reset the server from the
front panel switches.
Secure mode has no effect on functions enabled via remote server
management or power control via the watchdog timer.
Taking the server out of secure mode does not change the state of
system power. That is, if you press and release the power switch while
secure mode is in effect, the system will not be powered off when
secure mode is later removed. However, if the front panel power
switch remains depressed when secure mode is removed, the server
will be powered off.
