Step 6: Test Intel vPro Client Functionality in HP OOBMC
After the device has been discovered and added to the management database, it is a good idea to test
the functionality of the Intel vPro machine. To do that, you must login to the HP OOBM console as an
administrator (see HP OOBM Console User Guide OVCOutOfBandMgtConsoleGuide.pdf Chapter 3
“Starting the OOB Management Console” section and Chapter 5 “Getting Started Managing OOB
Devices” for detail). Once you have logged in to the HP OOBM console as an administrator, perform the
following steps to test the Intel AMT client functionality.
Step 6a: Test Intel vPro Client Functionality From HP Software
At a minimum, look at the following Intel vPro Options to test that the Intel AMT configuration has
been successfully completed:
o
discover the Hardware Assets on all of the provisioned OOB devices on your network.
Remote Boot Manager – Power On/Off
o
Remote Boot Manager using Console Redirection (Serial over LAN /SOL) and IDE
Redirection
For further information on testing these features, refer to OVCOutOfBandMgtConsoleGuide.pdf
Chapter 6 “OOB Management Use Case Scenarios”.
Step 6b: Test Intel AMT Client Functionality Using Intel AMT Web Console
1.
On the management console system, login as an administrator created in Step 3 with user
rights.
2.
Open a web browser and enter the IP address and assigned port number (16992 for non-TLS)
in the browser address bar (example, http://192.168.0.1:16992).
The following web browsers are supported:
o
Internet Explorer* 6.0 SP1 or later
o
Netscape* 7.2 for Windows and Linux
o
Mozilla Firefox* 1.0 for Windows and Linux
o
Mozilla 1.7 for Windows and Linux
3.
Once the Intel AMT Configuration Web Page is displayed, login using the Intel MEBX username
and password. You can then view the following client management information:
o
System Status
o
Hardware Information
o
Event Log
o
Remote Control
o
Network Settings
o
