AMT 2.5 and Wireless Support

[fred29210]

Does anyone have any info on AMT 2.5 in laptops as it pertains to wireless support? The reports I have read indicate AMT 2.5does support awireless connection, but with limitations. What are these limitations?

My assumption is that the OS has to be up for you to use any AMT functions wirelessly; i.e. no out-of-band access to AMT via a wireless connection.

Fred,

Thanks for your question. Yes, AMT 2.5 does support wireless and there are some limitations with the out of band capabilities. We will be officially releasing the AMT SDK on the manageability community in the next couple of weeks. In the meanwhile I will make sure we talk about all the features and limitations with AMT & wireless. Appreciate your continued interest with Intel AMT.

Hi - I just submitted a blog describing interoperability at a high level.

Fred,

Youre right, wireless manageability in AMT 2.5 is possible only in S0/H0 state (i.e. OS and WLAN driver are up and running).
