Windows SMM Security Mitigations Table (WSMT)

Compliance

The Windows (SMM) Security Mitigations Table contains information about the ACPI table that was created for the Windows

operating system, which supports Windows virtualization-based security (VBS) features. Dell Command | Congure is WSMT

compatible. This is used for conguring the platform features on Dell Client Systems with WSMT enabled BIOS.

Following are the behavioral changes due to WSMT compliance:

• Conguration functionalities are available on the Dell Client Platforms which have the compatible version of BIOS supporting

WMI/ACPI. For more information on the platform list, see Supported Platforms.

• The following limited functionalities are available when the systems are having incompatible BIOS.

– Dell Command | Congure GUI is used for viewing all the conguration features.

– Dell Command | Congure generates SCE for multi-platform packages.

– Dell Command | Congure generates the reports with the congured values.

– Dell Command | Congure opens a saved package.

You may see the following warning messages when the systems are having incompatible BIOS.
