Why each option
To remotely manage a server's BIOS, solutions that provide out-of-band access, independent of the operating system, are required, such as dedicated management cards and IP KVMs.
Remote desktop software operates at the operating system level and cannot access or manage the BIOS.
A dedicated management card, like IPMI or iLO, provides out-of-band management capabilities, allowing remote access to the server's console, including BIOS settings, even when the operating system is not running.
A Telnet session is an insecure, text-based terminal protocol used for accessing an operating system's command line, not for BIOS management.
An IP KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse over IP) allows remote users to connect to a server's physical KVM ports over a network, effectively providing remote access to the server's console, including the ability to enter and configure the BIOS.
A VPN provides secure network connectivity but does not inherently offer a mechanism to manage a server's BIOS itself.
