Create a Profile with CCM

Client Control Mode (CCM) provides full access to features of IntelĀ® Active Management Technology (IntelĀ® AMT), but it does require user consent for all redirection features.

These features require user consent:

  • Keyboard, Video, Mouse (KVM) Control
  • IDE-Redirection for sharing and mounting images remotely
  • Serial-over-LAN (SOL)

  2. Under the Profiles tab, click New in the top-right corner to create a profile.

  3. Specify a Profile Name of your choice.

  4. Under Activation Mode, select Client Control Mode from the dropdown menu.

  5. Leave Generate Random AMT Password unchecked.

    Production Environment

    In a production environment, you typically generate a random password for each AMT device to create a stronger, more secure AMT environment.

  6. Provide a strong AMT Password. AMT will verify this password when receiving a command from a MPS server.

    Important

    This password must meet standard, strong password requirements:

    • 8 to 32 characters

    • One uppercase, one lowercase, one numerical digit, one special character

  7. An MEBX Password is disabled for CCM activation.

  8. Select DHCP as Network Configuration.

  9. Select the name of the CIRA Configuration you created previously from the drop-down menu.

  10. Optionally, add Tags to help in organizing and querying devices as your list of managed devices grow.

  11. Click Save.
