Abstract
In one or more embodiments, one or more systems, one or more methods, and/or one or more processes may determine, via a baseboard management controller (BMC) of an information handling system, to provide firmware to a component of the information handling system; may provide, via the BMC, first data to the component via a first bus; based at least on the first data, may provide, via a communications bridge of the component, a first signal to a non-volatile memory medium (NVMM) of the component, a multiplexer of the component, and an integrated circuit of the component, in which the first signal causes the integrated circuit to be held in a reset state, causes a write protection of the NVMM to be cleared, and causes the multiplexer to couple the BMC to the NVMM; and may provide, via the BMC, the firmware to the NVMM via the multiplexer.
