How do I configure the ME Idle Timeout? Once you have updated the ME firmware and system BIOS, you can configure the ME firmware Idle Timeout on provisioned systems to allow the ME to transition to lower power states during OOB sleep state management. The Idle Timeout feature is operational only when the setting Intel ME ON in Host sleep states is set to ON in the MEBx ME configuration menu. The default setting for this option is OFF. The initial step to configuring the Idle Timeout is to enter the Management Engine BIOS Extension (MEBx) setup menu by pressing CTRL+P during BIOS POST. If an administrator password has been established in BIOS F10 setup, you must enter the administrator password to access the MEBx setup menu. If the HP Compaq dc7700 Business PC with vPro technology has not been provisioned, you must change the ME Password from the initial "admin" value to a strong password. The MEBx Password must be a strong password with the following requirements: • Must be between 8 and 32 characters. • Must contain both upper and lower case Latin characters (e.g. A, a, B, b). • Must contain at least one digit character (e.g. 0, 1, 2, ... 9). • Must have at least one non-alphanumeric character from the following valid list: • Valid characters Invalid characters space ) 6
