Chapter 5. Web user interface

Besides managing your computers with ISV applications, you can also perform some basic management
functions through the Web user interface, such as power controlling and asset inventory.
The Intel ME provides a Web user interface, which enables you to check the status of Intel AMT as well. If
you can access the Web user interface, your AMT setup and configuration is correct.

Accessing the Web user interface
