Intel(R) Active Management Technology (Intel AMT):
|
||
A short description of the SDK's WMI Provider Scripts for developers.
|
||
|
||
Intel(R) ME WMI provider - background:
|
||
--------------------------------------
|
||
The Intel<65> ME WMI provider allows ISVs and IT administrators to perform AMT
|
||
discovery and configuration operations using WMI technology. The Intel ME WMI
|
||
provider complements the existing WS-MAN API by abstracting low-level MEI (aka
|
||
HECI) operations through WMI.
|
||
|
||
Note: To ensure that security is maintained, the scripts should be run from
|
||
a directory that can be accessed only by the Administrator user. This is
|
||
to prevent unauthorized manipulation of files in the directory.
|
||
|
||
Following are the main functionalities implemented in the provider:
|
||
1. Discovery of ME and AMT related attributes, such as FW version and
|
||
provisioning state.
|
||
2. Local activation operation, performed as part of Remote Configuration.
|
||
3. FW events.
|
||
The Intel ME WMI provider is implemented as DLL (MeProv.dll) and operates as
|
||
part of Windows* WMI mgmt service. The provider is installed as part of the
|
||
Intel* CSME SW kit.
|
||
|
||
The WMI provider creates six WMI classes in the root\Intel_ME namespace:
|
||
1. AMT_EthernetPortSettings: A class contains all Intel(R) AMT specific settings
|
||
(IP, DHCP, VLAN) for one network interface in the system
|
||
2. AMT_ProvisioningCertificateHash: A class describes provisioning certificate
|
||
hash entry.
|
||
3. AMT_Service: A class providing access to AMT Features configuration, such as
|
||
KVM and IDE-Redirect
|
||
4. AMT_SetupAuditRecord: Provides a record of the last ME Activation Event as
|
||
recorded by ME
|
||
5. ME_System: A class representing Intel(R) Manageability Engine (ME) info
|
||
6. OOB_Service: A class for reporting the OOB configuration
|
||
|
||
For detailed information for each class, please refer to the SDK documentation.
|
||
For information about programming management applications using the WMI Provider,
|
||
see the WMI documentation in the Microsoft .NET Framework SDK.

-----------------------------------
|
||
The Intel AMT SDK WMI Samples directory includes the 3 following sample apps:
|
||
|
||
SystemProperties.ps1:
|
||
A PowerShell sample that demonstrates how to use the ME WMI provider and Windows
|
||
standard WMI provider to retrieve information about the ME and Host system.
|
||
|
||
MEevents.ps1:
|
||
A PowerShell sample that demonstrates how to receive ME events from the ME WMI
|
||
provider (MEprov). This sample requires LMS running in order to receive events.
|
||
|
||
Each PowerShell sample can be executed by double clicking on it.
