Intel AMT Release 2.5 adds features to respond to these challenges. It adds the capability to:
• Send and receive manageability traffic over a secured wireless LAN. The wireless LAN must have a DHCP-defined IP address, and not a static IP.
• Apply System Defense filters to wireless traffic.
• Support 802.1x authentication.
• Support power profiles that are different for AC and DC power.
• Detect whether the platform is inside or outside the enterprise network.
Releases 2.6 and 4.0 extend these features with the following additions:
• Intel AMT can send and receive manageability traffic over a wireless LAN connection even if no wireless profile was defined, as long as the host wireless driver has a secure wireless profile defined and is active and Intel AMT detects that it is inside the enterprise.
• Wake on LAN functionality applies also to traffic on the wireless port.
• Support for Microsoft Network Access Protection.
• Support for client-initiated remote access (Remote Fast Call for Help).
• Support for management over a VPN. This works even when the platform is configured with static IP addresses (although Intel AMT cannot connect directly over a wireless LAN with a static IP address); support for a VPN connection independent of platform location.
Release 4.0 adds support for wireless LAN out-of-band management in Sx states.
Release 6.0 adds synchronization with the currently active host wireless profile.
