Intel® ME Manageability Features
3.5.2.5 Legacy Redirection Mode
Under the SOL/IDER/KVM screen,
1. Select ‘Legacy Redirection Mode’.
2. Press Enter to select.
The following options can be selected:
- Disabled- legacy redirection Mode is disabled. (default)
- Enabled- the port is left open at all times when redirection is enabled in
the Intel MEBX. It is the same as what used to be SMB mode in previous
projects. Old (before Intel AMT 6.0) SMB consoles will need this mode
in order to succeed opening redirection sessions.
Legacy Redirection Mode controls how the redirection works. If set to disabled,
the console needs to open the redirection ports before running sessions. This is
meant for enterprise consoles and new SMB consoles that support opening the
redirection ports. The old SMB consoles (before Intel AMT 6.0) which don’t
support opening the redirection ports function need to manually turn on the
redirection port through this Intel MEBX option.
3.5.3 User Consent
The user consent feature requires the IT-administrator to supply a code, generated
by the Intel AMT platform and displayed to the user. This enhances security
when sensitive operations are performed. It also allows the local user to grant
permission before certain remote actions take place. The following features may
require user consent depending on the User Opt-in setting below:
• IDE-Redirection (IDE-R)
• KVM
• Remotely setting BIOS boot options
• Changing boot sources for remote boot (e.g. causing a boot from PXE).
