Option Description NOTE: The SGX menu is available, only when the SGX supported processor is installed. SGX Launch Control Policy Allows controlling the Launch Control Policy (LCP) of Software Guard Extensions (SGX) technology. This option is set to Unlocked by default. Power Button Enables or disables the power button on the front of the system. This option is set to Enabled by default. AC Power Recovery Sets how the system behaves after AC power is restored to the system. This option is set to Last by default. AC Power Recovery Delay Sets the time delay for the system to power up after AC power is restored to the system. This option is set to Immediate by default. User Defined Sets the User Defined Delay option when the User Defined option for AC Power Recovery Delay is selected. Delay (60 s to 240 s) UEFI Variable Access Provides varying degrees of securing UEFI variables. When set to Standard (the default), UEFI variables are accessible in the operating system per the UEFI specification. When set to Controlled, selected UEFI variables are protected in the environment and new UEFI boot entries are forced to be at the end of the current boot order. In-Band Manageability Interface When set to Disabled, this setting will hide the Management Engine's (ME), HECI devices, and the system's IPMI devices from the operating system. This prevents the operating system from changing the ME power capping settings, and blocks access to all in-band management tools. All management should be managed through out-ofband. This option is set to Enabled by default. NOTE: BIOS update requires HECI devices to be operational and DUP updates require IPMI interface to be operational. This setting needs to be set to Enabled to avoid updating errors. Secure Boot Enables Secure Boot, where the BIOS authenticates each pre-boot image by using the certificates in the Secure Boot Policy. Secure Boot is set to Disabled by default. Secure Boot Policy When Secure Boot policy is set to Standard, the BIOS uses the system manufacturer's key and certificates to authenticate pre-boot images. When Secure Boot policy is set to Custom, the BIOS uses the user-defined key and certificates. Secure Boot policy is set to Standard by default. Secure Boot Mode Configures how the BIOS uses the Secure Boot Policy Objects (PK, KEK, db, dbx). If the current mode is set to Deployed Mode, the available options are User Mode and Deployed Mode. If the current mode is set to User Mode, the available options are User Mode, Audit Mode, and Deployed Mode. Options User Mode Description In User Mode, PK must be installed, and BIOS performs signature verification on programmatic attempts to update policy objects. The BIOS allows unauthenticated programmatic transitions between modes. Audit Mode In Audit mode, PK is not present. The BIOS does not authenticate programmatic updates to the policy objects, and transitions between modes. Audit Mode is useful for programmatically determining a working set of policy objects. BIOS performs signature verification on pre-boot images and logs results in the image Execution Information Table, but executes the images whether they pass or fail verification. Deployed Mode Deployed Mode is the most secure mode. In Deployed Mode, PK must be installed and the BIOS performs signature verification on programmatic attempts to update policy objects. Deployed Mode restricts the programmatic mode transitions. Secure Boot Policy Summary Specifies the list of certificates and hashes that secure boot uses to authenticate images.
