2.8 Rack and Cabinet Mounting Options

The system is designed to support 19 inches wide by up to 30 inches deep server cabinets. The

system supports three rack mount options:

 A fixed mount relay rack/cabinet mount kit (Product Order Code - AXXBRACKETS)

which can be configured to mount the system into either a 2-post rack or 4-post cabinet.

 A tool-less full extracting slide rail kit (Product Order Code – AXXHERAIL2) designed to

support an optional cable management arm (Product Order Code – AXXRACKCARM2).

 A basic slide rail kit (Product Order Code – AXXBASRAIL13) designed to mount the

system into a standard (19 inches by up to 30 inches deep) EIA-310D compatible

server cabinet.

2.9 Trusted Platform Module (TPM) – Supported only on SR2625URLXT

2.9.1 Overview

Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is a hardware-based security device that addresses the

growing concern on boot process integrity and offers better data protection. TPM protects the

system start-up process by ensuring it is tamper-free before releasing system control to the

operating system. A TPM device provides secured storage to store data, such as security keys

and passwords. In addition, a TPM device has encryption and hash functions. The Intel

Server

System SR2625URLXT implements TPM as per TPM PC Client specifications revision 1.2 by

the Trusted Computing Group (TCG).

A TPM device is affixed to the motherboard of the server and is secured from external software

attacks and physical theft. A pre-boot environment, such as the BIOS and operating system

loader, uses the TPM to collect and store unique measurements from multiple factors within the

boot process to create a system fingerprint. This unique fingerprint remains the same unless

the pre-boot environment is tampered with. Therefore, it is used to compare to future

measurements to verify the integrity of the boot process.

After the BIOS complete the measurement of its boot process, it hands off control to the

operating system loader and in turn to the operating system. If the operating system is TPM-

enabled, it compares the BIOS TPM measurements to those of previous boots to make sure

the system was not tampered with before continuing the operating system boot process. Once

the operating system is in operation, it optionally uses TPM to provide additional system and

data security (for example, Microsoft Vista* supports Bitlocker drive encryption).
