Firmware Update

Intel provides an interface for updating the Intel Management Engine (ME) firmware. A firmware image is sent to the ME using either the Intel ME Interface (MEI) or via HTTP, replacing the original firmware image.

Note:

• The Firmware Update interface is used only by OEMs via Intel-supplied tools and is not intended for use in ISV applications.

• The HTTP interface for sending the firmware image, and the WS-Management interface for retrieving the firmware update status are enabled only for local access.

• This feature was removed from Intel AMT starting with Release 7.0.

• The Firmware Update realm is deprecated in Release 7.0 and will be removed in a future release.
