1. Please configure winrm on the system using the command winrm quickconfig.

2. Check if the token support exists on the system by referring to:

How to set the BIOS attributes?

BIOS Attributes can be changed using the DCIM_BootService.SetBIOSAttributes() method. The

SetBIOSAttributes() method sets the value of the instance defined in the DCIM_BIOSEnumeration class.

The method has seven input parameters. The first two parameters can be empty or null. The third

parameter AttributeName needs to take the input mapping to the value of attribute name instance of

DCIM_BIOSEnumeration class. The fourth parameter or AttributeValue can be any of the possible values

of the Attribute Name as defined in theDCIM_BIOSEnumeration class. If the BIOS Password is set on the

system, then you have to provide the same in the fifth argument. The sixth and seventh argument can

again be empty or null.
