5.9.3 Remote Desktop
The
Remote Desktop
function allows you to control a vPro client device through
KVM. This is useful for remotely monitoring and repairing the client device, should
the client device’s OS encounter an error.
Availability of certain functions may vary depending on vPro support
and ME version. Remote desktop is not supported by Intel Standard
Manageability (ISM).
If the client device is operating from the Intel MEBx, you will not be able to
connect using KVM.
The device will not be able to enter the Intel MEBx settings page if the
client device was restarted whilst using KVM.
When using the KVM remote desktop function of a vPro device, the border
of the client device screen will flash red and yellow to indicate that the
client device is currently running the KVM remote desktop function.
Setting up KVM before using Remote Desktop
Before using the Out-of-band Management Remote Desktop function for the first
time, ensure that KVM is enabled. On the Management Control Information page
of the vPro device, click
Control
, then click the drop down menu of the
Enable/
Disable KVM
field and select
Enable
.
To disable KVM, select the
Disable
option and restart the client device.
