Configuring Your Computer to Support Intel AMT Management Features After you completely configure the Intel® Management Engine (ME) feature, you must reboot before configuring the Intel AMT for a clean system boot. The image below shows the Intel AMT configuration menu after a user selects the Intel AMT Configuration option from the Management Engine BIOS Extension (MEBx) main menu. This feature allows you to configure an Intel AMT capable computer to support the Intel AMT management features. You need to have a basic understanding of networking and computer technology terms, such as TCP/IP, DHCP, VLAN, IDE, DNS, subnet mask, default gateway, and domain name. Explaining these terms is beyond the scope of this document.
