Manageability Technology
Intel offers IT organizations tamper-resistant and persistent management capabilities.
Intel Standard Manageability is a hardware-based solution that uses out of band
communication to manage access to client systems in addition to offering encrypted
and persistent asset management and remote diagnostics and/or recovery capabilities
for networked platforms. With Intel manageability, IT organizations can easily get
accurate platform information, and can perform remote updating, diagnostics,
debugging and repair of a system, regardless of the state of the operating system or
the power state of the system.
The Intel manageability subsystem consists of:
• ARC4 microcontroller embedded in the Intel 82B43 GMCH
• ICH10D (Intel
®
Management Engine (Intel
®
ME) function))
• Intel 82567LM Gigabit (10/100/1000 Mb/s) Ethernet LAN controller
• Channel A DIMM
• BIOS/SPI Flash
• On-board Intel

Fast Call for Help
Intel
®
Fast Call for Help allows platforms outside the enterprise firewall to trigger a
connection to the Internet with a gateway enabled by Intel
®
vPro™ technology. The
platform user presses a special button or key combination to initiate the platform
connection to a remote gateway enabled with Intel vPro technology. Upon
establishing a successful connection, a standardized event, such as a Platform Event
Trap (PET) is propagated to the enterprise network to register the client, either in the
enterprise or in the remediation network.
NOTE
Software with Intel manageability capability is required to take advantage of the Intel
platform management capabilities.
