The
vPro
Management Control Information
allows you to remotely perform
repairs when an error occurs on the client OS, check the hardware assets when
the device powered off, pin point system errors using the event log and trap
alert system, and provide network management and network protection for client
devices.
The functions in this section are hardware controlled and values may differ with
the software version. Please refer to the

chapter for more
information on Software mode.
• The client device needs to support Intel vPro remote management
controller.
• Availability of certain functions may vary depending on whether the client
device supports Intel Standard Manageability (ISM), Active Management
Technology (AMT), or Small Business Technology (SBT). Use Intel MEBx
to check which functions are supported on the client device.
• Ensure that the client device’s BIOS AMT and Intel MEBx settings are set
to enable the client device’s vPro functions before using these functions
through the management controller.
