Abstract:
A computer system including a central processing unit (CPU), a chipset connected to the CPU, a baseboard management controller (BMC) connected to the chipset, and a basic input/output system (BIOS) unit connected to the BMC is provided. The BMC switches a connection mode which the BMC connecting to the BIOS unit between a local mode and a bypass mode. The BIOS unit communicates with the chipset directly when the connection mode is switched to the bypass mode. When reading a BIOS information of the BIOS unit is needed, the BMC switches the connection mode to the local mode, communicates with the BIOS unit directly and read the BIOS information directly.
