1.4 Intel AMT – Remote Configuration, TLS-PKI
TLS with PKI configuration requires a provisioning server configured with an Intel AMT Remote Configuration
certificate that is rooted in one of the 15 pre-installed permanent certificates. This method of configuration is
shown in Section 1.1.5.2.1.1 and Figure 11 and Figure 12.
Note: Details of how to use this and other Remote Configuration methods can be found in the
documentation of your SCS or management application and are beyond the scope of this document.
1.5 Intel AMT Configuration – Host Based Configuration
Host Based Setup and Configuration needs no BIOS or Intel MEBX configuration. Instead, an agent is pushed
or downloaded to the client, requiring the configuration process to be done from within the operating system,
while the client is up (In Band). This also requires a management console application that is capable of
initiating Host Based Configuration. Once configured, the client is considered to be in Client Control Mode
which restricts certain Intel AMT features, such as disabling the System Defense filters and forcing User
Consent for redirection activities like KVM Remote Control and IDE-r.
1.6 Fast Call for Help (FCFH)
Fast Call for Help, or FCFH, requires no configuration out of the box. The user has two methods to activate
FCFH: 1) F9 key and 2) FCFH header.
During the initial POST screen, Fast Call for Help can be initiated by repeatedly pressing the F9 key while the
“Remote Assistance: F9” message is displayed (if enabled) on the screen (see Figure 1). The user may also
choose to connect a momentary switch to the FCFH header located on the board’s edge near the PCI slot, as
illustrated in
Figure 24. When depressed, an alert will be sent to the system administrator’s console. Additional
configuration of the system administrator’s console may be required in order to receive the alerts. Please
refer to the setup and configuration manual for the console you are using for details.
