Virtualization Technology (Intel
®
VT)
Intel VT is a processor technology that enables a platform to run multiple operating
systems and applications as independent machines, allowing one computer system to
function as multiple "virtual" systems.
It also provides the “assisted hardware
virtualization” required by some operating systems for backward compatibility, such as
Windows XP Mode for Microsoft Windows 7.
NOTE
Intel VT requires an Intel processor that supports Intel VT.
Intel
®
Trusted Execution Technology (Intel
®
TXT)
Intel
TXT helps protect the platform against software-based attacks and preserves the
confidentiality and integrity of the data created and stored on the system.
It
accomplishes this by using a measured launch and leveraging Intel VT to produce a
protected environment for the execution of sensitive applications.
NOTE
Intel TXT requires an Intel processor that supports Intel TXT.
Intel
®
Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (Intel
®
VT-d)
Intel VT-d compliments Intel VT by providing the ability to isolate and restrict
device accesses to the resources owned by the virtual partition managing the
device.
NOTE
Intel VT-d requires an Intel processor that supports Intel VT.

Remote PC Assist (Intel
®
RPAT) and Fast Call for Help
Intel RPAT provides a means for on-demand, reactive maintenance for small and
medium businesses.
Out of band, it is activated by pressing function key <F9> during
the system POST.
Optionally, an integrator may chose to connect an external button
to the RPAT header that serves the same function.
To utilize Intel RPAT technology
from the desktop requires the installation of the Intel RPAT Client Agent, available for
download from the Intel World Wide Web site.
Fast Call for Help supplies remote maintenance connectivity for the Enterprise user
inside or outside the corporate firewall.
Coupled with your enterprise’s Management
Presence Server, it provides both reactive and proactive maintenance.
Inside the
firewall, this feature adapts Client Initiated Local Access (CILA); outside the firewall it
