About this task
You can set a password to protect the server from changes to the BIOS settings. In addition, the
password protects against configuration changes such as updates to the Boot order, iLO
configuration, and Boot enable or disable.
If you add password for BIOS, you must protect, retain, and provide the password when changes to
the server are required.
Before you begin
Ensure that a monitor and USB keyboard are connected to the server.
