Intel Manageability
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 82Q45 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

AMT) status indicator
NOTE
Software with Intel manageability capability is required to take advantage of the Intel
platform management capabilities.

Active Management Technology Status Indicator
The Intel AMT status indicator (red LED) shows the current state of the Intel
Management Engine.
Table 5 shows the states of the Intel Management Engine as
indicated by the LED.
Figure 3 shows the location of the Intel AMT status indicator.
Table 5. Intel AMT Status Indicator
LED State
Indicates
Off
Intel Management Engine is in the off state.
On
Intel Management Engine is in the on state and fully functional.
Blinking
Intel Management Engine is in the M1 state; system is out of band; Intel
Management Engine is functional.
