Remote Management Technology

Models include either vPro technology or standard technology. Both allow for better discovery, healing,
and protection of networked computing assets. Both technologies allow PCs to be managed whether
the system is on, off, or the operating system is hung.
The three forms of remote manageability available on business desktops are Alert Standard Format
(ASF), Intel Active Management Technology (AMT), and Desktop and mobile Architecture for Systems
Hardware (DASH).
Remote management technology features include:
●
Network discovery
●
Hardware inventory information
● Platform health monitoring
●
Power management—power on/off, cycle power
●
Remote diagnosis and repair
◦
◦
●
Hardware-based isolation and recovery—limit or cut off PC network access, if virus-like activity is
detected
● Platform event tracking and auditing
●
Integrated web server management portal for remote access and configuration
●
Remote management technologies are integrated with HP's management console partners
NOTE: All features above are not available on all platforms.
