Configuring WinRM on client systems
If WinRm has not been configured on any client systems with which you are working that were not provisioned by the Remote
Provisioning feature, do the following command at an administrative command prompt:
NOTE: Configure the client system’s firewall to accept WinRM commands.
NOTE: To retrieve the current WinRM settings, use the following command: winrm get winrm/config. If you are
using a Group Policy Object-controlled setting, the command displays this information.
1. Enter winrm quickconfig
2. Press y to continue if prompted Do you want to configure winrm?
3. winrm set winrm/config/client @{AllowUnencrypted="false"}
4. winrm set winrm/config/client/auth @{Digest="true"}
5. winrm set winrm/config/client @{TrustedHosts="MANAGEMENT_SERVER_IP_ADDRESS"}
The WinRM is configured.
NOTE: When you provision a client system by Remote Provisioning, WinRm is automatically configured on the client
system.
Launching the Dell Command | Intel vPro Out of Band
application
The Dell Command | Intel vPro Out of Band application is installed in following location by default: C:\Program Files
(x86)\Dell\CommandIntegrationSuite\DellCommandvProOutOfBand.exe.
Account setup
The Account Setup window displays the first time that you launch the Dell Command | Intel vPro Out of Band application. From
here you can configure the following settings:
● Retrieve and select an available Configuration Manager SQL Server option from a drop-down list.
● Select the type of SQL Server Security (Integrated or Username/Password) you want to set.

Client discovery
When you initially launch the Dell Command | Intel vPro Out of Band application, and right after you configure your Account
Setup settings, the software performs the following actions:
● Updates the Configuration Manager .mof file and adds a Dell hardware inventory class to Configuration Manager.
● Creates vPro-AMT Capable, vPro-AMT Provisioned-Compliant, and vPro-AMT Provisioned-Not Compliant device
collections in Configuration Manager.
● Creates a vPro-AMT ACUConfig Package package in Configuration Manager.
● Creates a vPro-AMT Discover Client task sequence in Configuration Manager.
To discover AMT capability and provisioning status client systems from Configuration Manager, do the following:
1. Distribute the vPro-AMT ACUConfig Package package by distributing the content of the vPro-AMT Discover Client task
sequence.
2. Deploy the vPro-AMT Discover Client task sequence on a device collection.
The vPro-AMT Discover Client task sequence runs on all client systems in the targeted device collection, and the client
systems will eventually end up in one of the three vPro-AMT device collections. It may take a few minutes for the clients
to appear in the device collections. You must manually update the membership of the device collections or restart the
Configuration Manager Admin Console to refresh the device collections.
