1.7 System BIOS—Network Settings
The Network Settings page enables you to modify the UEFI PXE, iSCSI, and HTTP Boot device settings.
BIOS will only connect the UEFI drivers and create corresponding boot options for those network devices that
have been enabled and configured in this interface.
Note: The Network Settings menu is available only in the UEFI boot mode. For BIOS boot mode, the network
settings are handled by the network controllers option ROM (either by using the Configuration utility during
option ROM initialization phase or from the Device Settings menu inside System Setup).
Note: The default option setting is depicted in boldface. Dell EMC reserves the rights to change the defaults.
