This option determines if the local MEBx password can be modified from a remote console.
21. Select Secure Firmware Update, and then select Enabled.
Default Setting = Enabled, Recommended Setting = Enabled
This option enables/disables the ability to remotely update the ME firmware.
22. Skip Set PRTC.
Default Setting = None, Recommended Setting = Current Date and Time
This option sets the PRTC (Protected Real Time Clock). It is used with TLS mutual authentication which
checks for the client certificate for expiration based on its PRTC.
PRTC has a valid date range of 1/1/2004 to 1/4/2021.
23. Select Idle Timeout.
Default Setting = 1, Recommended Setting = 1
This option sets the timeout value for Wake-On-ME.
The default timeout value is 1 from the factory and it is in units of a minute. A value of 0 means the
Wake-On-ME feature is disabled and the ME will not go to sleep when not being used in a non-
active system. HP recommends a setting of 1, which allows the ME to go to sleep after 1 minute of
inactivity.
The timeout value can only be set in both decimal and hexadecimal notation, which is a minor
change from the dc7700p that allowed both decimal and hexadecimal notation. It must be set to a
non-zero value for the ME to take advantage of Wake-On-ME.
This value is not used when the system is in an active state - S0.
This value is used only if the ME ON in Host Sleep State setting is set to allow ME WoL. See
“Appendix C: Wake-On-ME Explained” on page 35 for an explanation of Wake-On-ME/ME WoL.
24. Select Return to previous menu.
25. Select Exit, and then select Y to exit the MEBx Setup and save settings.
The system displays an Intel ME Configuration Complete message, and then the system reboots.
After the system reboots, it changes from In-Setup phase to Operational phase, and AMT is fully
operational. Once in Operational phase, you can remotely manage the system through the Intel AMT
WebGUI or ISV remote console and you can provide the system to the end-user for regular use.
