AMT) 5.0
Intel AMT 5.0 offers IT organizations tamper-resistant and persistent management
capabilities.
Intel AMT 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 AMT, 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 AMT subsystem consists of:
ARC4 microcontroller embedded in the Intel 82Q45 Graphics and Memory
Controller Hub (GMCH)
ICH10DO (Intel
®
Management Engine function)
Intel 82567LM Gigabit (10/100/1000 Mb/s) Ethernet LAN controller
Channel A DIMM(s)
BIOS/SPI Flash
On-board Intel AMT status indicator
NOTE
Software with Intel AMT capability is required to take advantage of the Intel AMT
platform management capabilities.
