Back to Contents Page Setup and Configuration Methods Overview As discussed in the Setup and Configuration Overview section, the computer has to be configured before the Intel AMT capabilities are ready to interact with management application. There are two methods to complete the provisioning process (in order from least complex to most complex): Configuration service - A configuration service allows you to complete the provisioning process from a GUI console on their server with only one touch on each of the Intel AMT capable computers. The PPS and PID fields are completed using a file created by the configuration service saved to a USB mass storage device. MEBx interface - The IT administrator manually configures the Management Engine BIOS Extension (MEBx) settings on each Intel AMT ready computer. The PPS and PID fields are completed by typing the 32 character and 8 character alpha-numeric keys created by the configuration service into the MEBx interface. Details on using these various methods are available in the next few sections. Back to Contents Page
