Q: Why does a new password set with the WebGUI cannot be used locally in the MEBx?
A: A password set with the WebGUI is a remote password and will only work when accessing the MEBx
remotely. It does not work with the MEBx locally. The local password must be used to locally access
the MEBx.
Q: Is TLS required?
A: No. TLS is optional.
Q: If TLS is not used, then what is used?
A: HTTP Digest will be used for mutual authentication if TLS is not used.
Q: Who provides Setup and Configuration Servers?
A: HP Out of Band Manager and ISVs such as Altiris provide Setup and Configuration Servers. Check
with your management console supplier to see if they offer this service.
Q: Can AMT be set for static address and the OS set for DHCP or vice versa?
A: No. Although it can be done, this is not a supported setting by Intel and may cause unexpected
system behavior.
Q: What is the default port used by the Intel WebGUI?
A: The Intel WebGUI listens to port 16992.
Q: What is the difference between the ME and AMT?
A: The ME is the controller that manages AMT along with ASF and QST. Notice that clearing AMT
settings does not affect ME settings since the ME is a separate entity.
Q: Why does Wake-On-ME not work after the Idle Timeout is set?
A: The Wake-On-ME feature only works if the ME ON in Host Sleep State setting is set to allow ME WoL
and the system is fully provisioned.
Q: Is a graphical representation of the ME and AMT available?
A: Yes.
