Intel® Server Board S3000PT
The escape sequence in the following table is an input sequence. This means it is sent to the
BIOS from the remote terminal.

Limitations

BIOS console redirection terminates after an EFI -aware operating system calls EFI Exit
Boot Services. The operating system is responsible for continuing console redirection
after that.
BIOS console redirection is a text console. Graphical data, such as a logo, is not
redirected.

5.2 Intel Active Management Technology (AMT)
Intel® Active Management Technology architec ture is based on market demand for a platform
management solution that provides remote management capabilities independent of system
power states. The Intel® AMT architecture is centered around the Intel® ICH7R IO controller
and Intel® 82573 Gigabit LAN components. The Intel® ICH7R controller provides an interface
to a new SPI flash device for potential cost savings.
Because Intel® AMT depends on the availability of the Intel® 82573 PCI manageability
functions, the Intel® AMT does not operate with third -party LANs.
The main objectives of Intel® AMT are:
Deployable – Intel® AMT uses existing protocols and services available in today's IT
networks to minimize cost. Intel® AMT is constrained to the use of DHCP, DNS,
SOAP/XML/HTTP, and TLS; which are available on most IT networks today.
Highly Available – The ability to provide remote management in the event of operating
system or hardware failure. Intel® AMT provides baseline services whenever there is (at
the minimum) auxiliary power available to the platform. Currently, system auxiliary power
is maintained by the main power supply when the system is plugged into the wall. This
will significantly reduce IT expenses for system repair.
OS-independent Agent – Baseline platform management capabilities that simplify
system management running different operating system types and versions. Intel® AMT
provides common remote management and persistent storage features that run
independently of the operating system.
Secure and Tamper Resistant - Intel® AMT provides access control, data security, and
protection against attacks by using standard security protocols (e.g., TLS) and
application-level security mechanisms. Intel® AMT also provides tamper resistance to
prevent the end-user from removing or disabling remote manageme nt service.
