Abstract
An information handling system includes first and second devices, a connectivity switch, and a baseboard management controller. The first and second devices are configured to communicate with first and second processors of the information handling system. The connectivity switch is connected between the first and second devices and the first and second processors. The connectivity switch operates in one of a plurality of configurations including a first configuration, a second configuration, and a third configuration. Each of the configurations provides a different connectivity between the first device, the second device, the first processor, and the second processor. The baseboard management controller determines a setup of the first and second devices, and provides a connectivity indication signal to the connectivity switch based on the setup of the first and second devices. The connectivity indication signal identifies one of the configurations for the connectivity switch.
