Thank you for your interest in the Intel® Active Management Technology (Intel® AMT) Setup and Configuration Service (SCS).

Introduction

Intel® Active Management Technology’s (Intel® AMT) Setup and Configuration Service (Intel SCS or SCS) provides developer or ISV with the tools to set up and configure Intel AMT devices. The Setup and Configuration Service (SCS) allows for most aspects of setup and configuration to be completed through a remote management console. It supports end user environments that implement TLS security and a DHCP network. The service package consists of a configuration engine and installer in binary form, plus a reference graphical user interface that the ISV may integrate into their own software.
