Default configuration settings are applied to the server in either of the following scenarios:

  • When the system powers up for the first time

Default configuration settings are sufficient for typical server operations. However, you can modify the configuration settings as needed. The system prompts you to access the Aptio Setup Utility every time the system is powered up.
