Abstract:
A system for identifying peripheral devices in an information handling system uses a path-based signature for each peripheral component device. A static table is included for listing the path of each peripheral device and is accessible to the Basic Input-Output System (BIOS). The BIOS is configured to identify peripheral components associated and determine a path-base device signature for each peripheral component.
