HP Business Notebook Intel® vProTM setup and configuration 2011 Business Notebook Models - Technical white paper

If Dynamic DNS Update is enabled then the firmware will actively try to register its IP

addresses and FQDN in DNS using the Dynamic DNS Update protocol. If DDNS Update

is disabled then the firmware will make no attempt to update DNS using DHCP option 81

or Dynamic DNS update. If the DDNS Update state (Enabled or Disabled) is not

configured by the user at all then the firmware will assume its old implementation where

the firmware used DHCP option 81 for DNS registration but did not directly update DNS

using the DDNS update protocol. For selecting “Enabled” for Dynamic DNS Update it is

required that the Host Name and Domain Name must be set. When DDNS Update

option is enabled, the MEBx menu will display “Periodic Update Interval” and “TTL”

options.

- Periodic Update Interval: Enter a desired interval between 20 minutes – 1440

minutes

- TTL: Enter desired time in seconds

15. TCP/IP Settings.

AMT 7.1 supports IPV4 and IPV6 interface. Follow steps 15a-15f to configure for IPV4 and

15g-15h for IPV6.

a. Wired LAN IPV4 Configuration

DHCP Mode

Default Setting : Enabled

Recommended Setting : Enabled

DHCP can be used if it is available (TCP/ IP settings will be configured by a DHCP

server). If DHCP is disabled, then steps 15b through 15f are required to configure the

IPv4 static IP address for Intel AMT.

b. IPV4 Address

Enter a static address

Default Setting : 0.0.0.0

Recommended Setting : Network Dependent

Example: 192.168.0.1

Make sure all AMT systems have a unique static IP address. Multiple systems sharing the

same IP address can lead to network collisions, which will cause the systems to not

respond correctly.

c. Subnet Mask

Enter subnet mask

Default Setting : 255.255.255.0

Recommended Setting : Network Dependent

Example: 255.255.255.0

d. Default Gateway Address

Leave as default value and hit Enter

Default Setting : 0.0.0.0

Recommended Setting : Network Dependent

Leave as 0.0.0.0 if this option is not needed.

e. Preferred DNS Address
