9.7 AMT (Active Management Technology)
Function
AMT (Active Management Technology) is technology for the remote maintenance of
computers (simply called AMT-PC in the remainder of the document) and it includes the
following functions:
●
Keyboard–Video–Mouse (KVM) redirection: Using KVM that is integrated in the AMT
hardware you access the AMT PC remotely. With KVM, you can also control AMT PCs
that have no or a defective operating system. A KVM remote session is always possible
with the KVM server integrated in the firmware. This means you can restart the PC and
change the BIOS setup remotely.
● Remote power management: AMT PCs can be turned on and off and restarted from
another PC.
● SOL (Serial over LAN): Redirection of the data of a serial interface to the network. The
main use of the function is text-based remote control of an AMT PC using a console.
● IDE redirection: An ISO file on the help desk PC can be mounted on the AMT PC and
used as a DVD drive.
An ISO file contains a memory image of the content of a CD or DVD structured in the ISO
9660 format.
● Remote reboot: An AMT PC can be booted from a bootable ISO file made available by
another PC.
Requirements
● A device with a Core i5 or Core i7 processor
● A functioning and configured management engine
● A functioning and configured Ethernet connection
● A help desk PC with a functioning and configured Ethernet connection for the full AMT
functionality
Configuration of the AMT PC
You configure AMT using the BIOS setup and the MEBx (Management Engine BIOS
Extension). MEBx is a BIOS extension for configuring AMT.
