(Intel AMT only)
The Intel AMT network filtering (Circuit Breaker) functionality lets you block
network traffic from and to the target computers' operating systems. For example,
you can use this feature to isolate infected computers from the network.
Note: Network Filtering works only if both client operating system and Intel AMT
network settings are configured to use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP).
Some ports stay open when network filtering is active. You can customize the
ports that you want to stay open.
See "About network filtering ports and settings"
You can also perform this task on a single computer in real time.
