ME BIOS Extension
Before using the ME BIOS Extension
• In the default factory settings, the password and the ID used for management tools is
set to "admin".
• Until the default password is changed, you are not able to alter any settings other
than the password itself.
• Keeping the default password may allow a third party to gain access to Intel
®
AMT.
Even if you do not intend to use Intel
®
AMT, we strongly recommend changing the
password from the default password.
• Double quotes ("), commas (,), periods (.), or colons (:) cannot be included in your
