Managing Link Preference for a Session Connected Over a Wireless Interface

The application demonstrates how to work with a wireless connection and the steps needed to change from a host preference to an ME preference.

The application first checks if the current connection is over a wireless (vs. a wired) link. The application can do this only if Intel AMT credentials were defined. This check will not occur when the application is configured to only use the default port. If it is, the application displays the following pop-up and enables the Wireless tab on the tool bar:

If the process completes successfully, the last detected change will be displayed at the bottom of the Wireless Session configuration panel:
