Hello,

I am looking for a manager (Dell or otherwise) that allows me to modify BIOS settings remotely, specifically its Password. The particularity of this search is that I need a solution that allows for mass deployment of BIOS parameters on multiple machines at once, as I will need to change the password once a month on each machine.
For your information: The machines in question are mostly (Dell Optiplex 755 / 980)

Thank you in advance.

Configuration: Windows 7 / Firefox 6.0.2

Hello,

Thank you very much for this quick response. Indeed, it's worth testing; I'll get to it as soon as I have a bit of time. We'll see if this software will allow me to change the BIOS password once a month on about 130 machines without having to go to each one. If it works, it would be fantastic!

Have a great day! Thanks again.

Hello,

If you could provide feedback on your tests...

However, I doubt that this kind of technology is already available...

The ability to do a "group" Wake on Lan seems more than possible to me, but a "group" BIOS password reset, I'll believe it when I see it ;)

Thank you :)
See you!
