Hi, I'm trying to manage AMT in wireless mode and unable to access webui in wireless mode alone.

AMT firmware version is 8.1.0-build 1265 

I'm able to connect to AMT webui using wired mode(ip address is 10.0.3.48) and configured wireless setting as below

My Wireless network uses Security type as WPA2-Personal and Encryption type as AES(which is equivalent to RSN-PSK with CCMP)

Created new wireless profile Network authentication as RSN-PSK and encryption as CCMP

Initial setting were below Band mode capabilities: A B G N Radio state: Unknown Wireless Management: Disabled

Then I changed Wireless management to Enabled in S0, Sx/AC

Restarted AMT system and shows Radio state as on in wireless settings of Webui

Wireless ip address in webUI is showing as 0.0.0.0 only I checked Intel® Management and Security Status Application in AMT system it shows link down in wireless mode,

Wireless connection Link Status : Link Down IPV4 Address: 0.0.0.0 Configured for Wireless: Wireless enabled

I have disconnected LAN cable and restarted system. Tried to access webui in wireless mode,Getting error as Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage If i check IP address for wireless connection using ipconfig in AMT system, i'm getting ip address(10.0.3.49) and not able to access  web ui using that ip address(http://10.0.3.49:16992).

I'm able to take rdp of AMT system(Windows 7 OS is loaded in AMT system) and ping from another system.

I configured AMT through SMB mode. Am I missing any wireless setting?

Thanks,

Mani

Wow - off hand there are only a couple  things that I can think of that might cause issues.  One is that you can't use static IP adresses - the IP address has to be shared with the host (doesn't look like that is happening?)

Also, you can verify the following:

1.  For Intel AMT to work with a wireless LAN, it must share IP addresses with the host. This requires the presence of a DHCP server to allocate IP addresses and Intel AMT must be configured to use DHCP.

2. Security Settings  (looks like you are OK here...)

  • Key Management approach: Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) or Robust secure Network (RSN)
  • Encryption Algorithm: Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) or Counter Mode CBC MAC Protocol (CCMP)
  • Authentication: Passphrase or 802.1x profile
