Ethernet ASF Alerts Configuration

Ethernet ASF Alerts Configuration

ASF is an industry specification that defines alerting capability in both operating system-present and operating system-absent environments.

Note: This web page is controlled by the ASF field in the Ethernet Basic Configuration page. If ASF is disabled, this web page is read-only and no configuration change is allowed. If ASF is enabled, configuration change is allowed on this web page.


Parameters

For each parameter, select the corresponding check box to enable it, or clear the check box to disable it.


Parameter Description
Boot failure alert This ASF alert is triggered when the Operating System fails to boot.
Fan problem alert ASF Fan alert is triggered if the CPU fan is running at a low speed or has stopped, possibly causing the CPU or system temperature to increase.
SMBus error alert The alert packet is sent when there is an SMBus (System Management Bus) error. The System Management Bus (SMBus) is a two-wire interface that the system uses to communicate with simple power-related chips.
Wake on LAN alert Wake on LAN (WOL) alert is triggered when the system is woken up using WOL.
OS hung alert OS hung alert is triggered when the operating system hangs and the drivers or operating system is not servicing the interrupts generated by the network interfaces.
Power button alert This alert is triggered every time the user presses the power button to turn off or turn on the system.
System hot alert ASF System hot alert is triggered when the temperature in the system exceeds a threshold limit.
CPU overheat alert ASF CPU overheat alert is triggered when the temperature of the CPU exceeds a threshold.
Case intrusion alert ASF case intrusion alert is triggered when the system case is opened.

Note: Only ASF events supported by the motherboard are displayed on the Web page.
