[ Detailed description ] of the invention
Before the present invention is described in detail, it is noted that in the following description, like components are denoted by the same reference numerals.
Referring to fig. 1, a computer device 11 for implementing a first embodiment and a second embodiment of the bios setup menu entering method of the present invention is illustrated, and includes a communication unit 111, a display unit 112, a processing unit 113 electrically connected to the display unit 112, and a baseboard management control unit 114 electrically connected to the communication unit 111 and the processing unit 113, wherein the communication unit 111 is a user terminal 13 of a communication network 12. The computer device 11 is, for example, a server, the baseboard management control unit 114 is, for example, a baseboard management controller, the communication network 12 is, for example, the internet (internet), and the user terminal 13 is, for example, a personal computer or a notebook computer, but not limited thereto.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the steps involved in the first embodiment of the bios setup menu entry method of the present invention will be described below.
In step 201, when the baseboard management control unit 114 receives a login unlock request from the user terminal 13 via the communication unit 111, the baseboard management control unit 114 generates and transmits an unlock command to the processing unit 113.
It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the ue 13 logs in to the baseboard management control unit 114 by the ipmtool or Redfish with the user name and password, and then transmits the login unlock request to the baseboard management control unit 114, where the unlock command is an original equipment manufacturer command (Original Equipment Manufacturer command, OEM command), but not limited thereto.
It is noted that, after the processing unit 113 completes the Power-On Self-Test (POST), the processing unit 113 sends a signal to inform the baseboard management control unit 114 that the Power-On Self-Test is completed, and the baseboard management control unit 114 starts to execute step 201 after receiving the signal.
In step 202, the baseboard management control unit 114 generates and stores a system event Log (SYSTEM EVENT Log, SEL) associated with the user terminal 13 requesting unlocking.
In step 203, when the processing unit 113 receives a hotkey instruction related to executing a bios setup menu and a password related to executing the bios setup menu, the processing unit 113 determines whether the unlock instruction is received. When the processing unit 113 determines that the unlock instruction is not received, the flow proceeds to step 204; and when the processing unit 113 determines that the unlock instruction is received, the flow proceeds to step 205.
It should be noted that the hotkey command is generated after the user presses a hotkey (such as F2/F7) of a keyboard (not shown), but is not limited thereto.
In step 204, the processing unit 113 generates an error message and displays the error message on the display unit 112.
In step 205, the processing unit 113 determines whether a time difference between an unlock instruction receiving time associated with receiving the unlock instruction and a hotkey instruction receiving time associated with receiving the hotkey instruction is less than a threshold. When the processing unit 113 determines that the time difference is not less than the threshold, the flow proceeds to step 204; and when the processing unit 113 determines that the time difference is smaller than the threshold, the flow proceeds to step 206.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, in order to avoid that other users who do not issue the login unlock request enter the bios setup menu, the step 206 is performed when the time difference is not less than the threshold, i.e. the user needs to trigger the hotkey instruction within the time limit of the threshold, for example, 120 seconds, and in other embodiments, step 205 may not be performed, but not limited thereto.
In step 206, the processing unit 113 receives a password associated with executing the bios setup menu and determines whether the password is correct. When the processing unit 113 determines that the password is incorrect, the flow proceeds to step 204; and when the processing unit 113 determines that the password is correct, the flow proceeds to step 207.
In step 207, the processing unit 113 executes the bios setup menu.
Referring to fig. 1 and 3, the second embodiment of the bios setup menu entry method of the present invention includes steps 501 to 506, wherein steps 501 to 504 and 506 are similar to steps 201 to 204 and 207 of the first embodiment, respectively, except that:
in step 505, the processing unit 113 determines whether a time difference between an unlock instruction receiving time associated with receiving the unlock instruction and a hotkey instruction receiving time associated with receiving the hotkey instruction is less than a threshold. When the processing unit 113 determines that the time difference is not less than the threshold, the flow proceeds to step 504; and when the processing unit 113 determines that the time difference is smaller than the threshold, the flow proceeds to step 506.
In detail, in the present embodiment, in step 505, when the processing unit 113 determines that the time difference is not less than the threshold, the user does not need to input a password again, that is, the processing unit 113 does not receive any password, and the processing unit 113 directly executes the bios setting menu.
For example, if the threshold is 120 seconds, if the time difference is less than 120 seconds, the processing unit 113 directly executes the bios setup menu; if the time difference is not less than 120 seconds, the processing unit 113 generates the error message.
Referring to fig. 4, a computer device 31 for implementing a second embodiment of the bios setup menu entering method of the present invention is illustrated, which comprises a communication unit 311, a display unit 312, a storage unit 313, a processing unit 314 electrically connected to the display unit 312 and the storage unit 313, and a baseboard management control unit 315 electrically connected to the communication unit 311, the storage unit 313, and the processing unit 314, wherein the communication unit 311 is a user terminal 33 of a communication network 32.
Referring to fig. 4 and 5, the third embodiment of the bios setup menu entry method of the present invention includes steps 401 to 408, wherein steps 401, 402, 405 are similar to steps 201, 202, 204 of the first embodiment, respectively, except that:
in step 403, the baseboard management control unit 315 generates a flag and stores the flag in the storage unit.
In step 404, when the processing unit 313 receives a hotkey instruction related to executing a bios setup menu and a password related to executing the bios setup menu, the processing unit 313 determines whether the unlock instruction is received. When the processing unit 313 determines that the unlock instruction is not received, the flow proceeds to step 405; and when the processing unit 313 determines that the unlock instruction is received, the flow proceeds to step 406.
In step 406, the processing unit 314 determines whether the storage unit stores the flag. When the processing unit 314 determines that the storage unit does not store the flag, the flow proceeds to step 405; when the processing unit 314 determines that the flag is stored in the storage unit, the flow proceeds to step 407.
In step 407, the processing unit 313 receives a password associated with executing the bios setup menu and determines whether the password is correct. When the processing unit 313 determines that the password is incorrect, the flow proceeds to step 405; and when the processing unit 313 determines that the password is correct, the flow proceeds to step 408.
In step 408, the processing unit 314 deletes the flag and executes the bios setup menu.
It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, unlike the time limitation of the first embodiment, since the processing unit 314 deletes the flag when executing the bios setup menu, the login unlock request needs to be issued by the user terminal 33 again each time the bios setup menu is required to be accessed, so as to regenerate the flag.
In summary, in the bios setup menu entry method of the present invention, the baseboard management control units 114 and 315 generate and transmit the unlock command to the processing units 113 and 314 when receiving the login unlock request, so that the processing units 113 and 314 execute the bios setup menu when determining that the unlock command is received and determining that the time difference is smaller than the threshold value or the flag is stored in the storage unit, and increase access to the bios setup menu limit, and the baseboard management control units 114 and 315 generate and store the system event log to track the person who releases the limit, thereby achieving the purpose of the present invention.
However, the foregoing is only illustrative of the present invention and is not to be construed as limiting the scope of the invention, which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
