Support for KVM Redirection

Intel AMT 6.0 and higher includes support for third-party applications to operate Intel AMT systems using remote Keyboard, Video and Mouse (KVM) Redirection.

KVM Redirection lets you remotely operate a system as if you are physically located at the remote system. KVM Redirection uses Virtual Network Computing (VNC) to “share” the graphical output of the remote system. The results of keyboard and mouse commands transmitted to the remote system over the network are displayed on the screen of the local system.

VNC includes two main components:

To use KVM Redirection with Intel AMT requires that:

  1. KVM is enabled in the Intel MEBX of the Intel AMT system. If disabled in the Intel MEBX, KVM cannot be enabled by Intel SCS during configuration (it must be done manually at the system).
  2. The KVM Redirection interface is enabled in the Intel AMT device.
  3. A VNC Client is installed on the computer that will control the Intel AMT systems.

VNC Clients

VNC Clients can connect to the VNC Server in the Intel AMT device using these ports:

Note:
The VNC Client must use version 3.8 or 4.0 of the Remote Frame Buffer (RFB) protocol.
