Systems and methods for configuring out-of-band bios settings

An information handling system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a baseboard management controller (BMC) associated with the processor, the BMC configured to:
• receive a configuration change request from a remote user via a network while the processor is offline;
• store the configuration change request in a request log;
• after the processor comes online, update configuration data based on the configuration change request stored in the request log;
• store a copy of the updated configuration data in a storage device coupled to the BMC such that the copy of the updated configuration data is accessible when the processor is offline;
• and
• access and provide the copy of the updated system configuration to a subsequent remote user when the processor is offline.
