In order to remotely manage AMT systems, the administrator must use a remote console that supports
AMT. Enterprise management consoles are available from suppliers such as HP, Altiris and Microsoft
SMS. In SMB mode, the client provides a Web browser interface. To access this feature, open a browser
from any other system on the network and enter http://host_name:16992 where host_name is
the name assigned to the system. Alternatively, the IP address may be used in place of the host name.
To configure systems with a Broadcom DASH capable NIC:
Check for the latest documentation on the

Troubleshooting, then select your specific model, then select Manuals, then White papers referring
to DASH or the Broadcom NIC.
