Manage BootNext Setting

Use this option to run the selected boot option immediately upon entering the main Boot Manager
menu. This option is useful for booting an option that only needs to be booted once, without
changing any other setting in the main Boot Manager menu. This is a one-time operation and does
not change the permanent server boot settings.
This option displays the file systems that are on your server and lets you browse these file systems
for applications or drivers that are executable. Executable files end with the

.efi

extension. You

can also select remote boot (LAN) options that were configured on your network.
To restore the default boot next setting, select

Reset BootNext Setting

.

For example:
