The method can also include establishing an initial trust between the first computing device and a second computing device that is remote from the first computing device, over a serial-over-lan (SOL) connection that is a feature of the active management technology system. The method can also include configuring the setting of the BIOS of the first computing device and storing a schedule for changing the setting of the BIOS. The method can also include reconfiguring the setting of the BIOS in response to the schedule stored on the database over the SOL.
