Host-based configuration authentication

For host-based configuration, provide credentials for Intel

AMT configuration and use McAfee ePO

Deep Command Root CA.

Make sure to configure these settings on the Server Settings page:

• Credentials for Intel

AMT Configuration — Create a password for your managed Intel

AMT systems. The

default user name for Intel

AMT is admin.

• Trusted Root Certificates — Use McAfee ePO Deep Command Root CA.

Remote configuration

This method uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) to securely configure Intel

AMT systems.

It requires a configuration server and uses root certificates stored in the Intel

AMT systems. The

setup and configuration application identifies itself with a certificate to perform the configuration

process.

To implement this method of configuration from McAfee ePO, you need a managed Intel

RCS server

with the ePO Deep Command RCS Management plug-in installed on it.

This diagram presents the recommended process for configuring systems using remote configuration.
