NOTE: iAMT is available for Dell™ Latitude™ D630c computers with iAMT
capability only.
Intel Active Management Technology (iAMT), part of Intel Centrino
®
Pro
Technology, is intended to deliver more secure systems management capabilities
that reduce IT costs, and allows better discovery, healing, and protection of
networked computing assets. With iAMT, PCs can be managed whether the
computer is turned on or off, or the operating system is not responding.
NOTE: iAMT can be configured using Dell Client Manager (DCM) 2.1. For complete
information about how to configure iAMT, see the Dell Client Manager 2.1
documentation at dell.com\openmanage. For more information about Dell's iAMT
implementation, see the Systems Management Administrator's Guide at
support.dell.com.
Key benefits of iAMT are:
• Reduced desk-side visits
• Automation of more management functionality through enablement of
systems management console software
• Improved security
iAMT Features
Basic Functionality
• Ability to discover, track, and inventory assets in the presence or absence of
the operating systems. The computer must be connected to the network
and to an electrical outlet.
• Ability to turn on and off the computer remotely regardless of the state of
