Intel® vPro™ Technology
Intel® vPro™ Technology is supported by Model A computers only . This set of
technology features, built into the computer’s motherboard, allows Information
Technology departments remote access to the computer. This allows the IT depart-
ment to monitor, maintain and manage computers regardless of the state of the op-
erating system or the computer’s power state. This can be done over a wired or
corporate wireless network, or even outside the corporate firewall through a wired
LAN connection.

ministrator will need to assist you in managing the information as applicable to your
