Linking with the Redirection Library (Linux)

The Intel-provided static Redirection library provides all of the logic required to redirect serial and IDE data to and from Intel AMT enabled hardware and firmware. If you want to link with the Intel supplied library, put the library file name in the Makefile in the linkage command. The following options should be used if you use the GNU C compiler:

-limrsdk –L<dir>

Where <dir> is the directory in which libimrsdk<X>.a is located (see the table below for versions).

Other additional libraries are also required: crypto, pthread and ssl. The following additional arguments must be used when linking with the GNU compiler:

-lcrypto -lpthread –lssl

The Intel AMT SDK contains several versions of the redirection library for the different supported Linux flavors.
