a. Select Disable Network Interface, and then select N.
Default Setting = Network Interface Enabled, Recommended Setting = Network Interface
Enabled
If the network is disabled, then all remote AMT capabilities are disabled and TCP/IP settings are
not necessary.
This option is a toggle, and the next time you access it you are prompted with the opposite
setting.
b. Select DHCP Disable, and then select Y.
Default Setting = DHCP Enabled, Recommended Setting = User Dependent
You can use DHCP if it is available. If you use DHCP, then steps 15c through 15g are not
necessary. Otherwise, the system administrator will have to configure TCP/IP settings.
For the purpose of this white paper, DHCP is disabled so steps 15c through 15g can be
illustrated. Step h will appear for both DHCP and Static configurations.

address can lead to network collisions, which will cause the systems to not respond correctly.
