Method and device for managing Option ROM loading, and medium

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for managing Option ROM loading. The method comprises the following steps: powering on and starting up, and checking whether PCIe equipment needs to load an Option ROMor not; in response to the condition that the PCIe equipment needs to be loaded with the Option ROM, generating a key through a hash encryption algorithm added with a timestamp, and transmitting thekey to an administrator user; in response to the login of the user, displaying an interface for inputting the key to the user and judging whether the key received by the interface for inputting the key is correct or not; and in response to the fact that the received secret key is correct, displaying an Option ROM configuration interface and allowing the user to modify the configuration interface.The invention further discloses computer equipment and a readable storage medium. According to the method and the device for managing Option ROM loading and the medium, the timestamps are added into the hash algorithm, so that the secret keys generated each time are different, the safety of server hardware is guaranteed, reliable transmission of data is guaranteed, and the product competitivenessis enhanced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of Option ROMs, more specifically, to a method, device and readable medium for managing loading of Option ROMs. Background technique [0002] At this stage, with the rapid development of servers, data security has gradually become an important issue, and users have higher and higher requirements for server security, requiring both simple operation and guaranteed security. At present, the PCIe4.0 standard interface rate has reached 16GT / s, and the QPI rate between CPUs is only 10.4GT / s, which means that the data exchange rate between CPU and IO is faster than the exchange rate between CPUs. According to PCI- sig revealed that the PCIe 5.0 standard rate is 32GT / s and will be officially commercialized in 2020. [0003] In the existing technology, users can modify the PCIe Option ROM configuration at will. Malicious modification of the network card Option ROM will cause network paralysis, attacking the intranet s...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the existing technology, users can modify the PCIe Option ROM configuration at will. Malicious modification of the network card Option ROM will cause network paralysis, attacking the intranet switch will interrupt all services in the area, and malicious modification of the storage RAID card will destroy the entire storage array. All HDD data attached to the RAID card will be damaged and cannot be recovered
