Here's a very innovative way to apply the Agent Presence use case! Student IM-ing was becoming unmanageable at Taibei High School - with 80% of the students using their classroom PCs for that purpose - during class. Taibei High School began deploying PCs with Intel vPro technology and took advantage of the agent presence checking features while they were at it. This brought IM usage from 80% to ZERO! Of course there were other great benefits - 1-1/2 yr break even point, 115% ROI...read on to learn more!!

Some issues with the Intel® Active Management Technology’s (Intel® AMT) Setup and Configuration Service (Intel SCS or SCS) Console GUI in the 5.x versions exist.

 

While not insurmountable, they must be taken into consideration when planning the use of the SCS Console.

 

Take a look at my new post Intel® AMT SCS 5.X GUI Issues for details.

We've added a new type of user guide to our documentation roadmap - the Technology Reference Guide. The purpose of this guide is to provide overviews of vPro technologies as they are rolled out. This version of the guide includes information on Intel Anti-Theft Technology (AT-p), Fast Call for Help (also known as CIRA), tools such as Audit Log and IMSS, Intel TPM, and others.

 

Intel(R) vPro Technology Reference Guide

 

I'd really like to hear what you think about this guide - if you have feedback, please let me know!

 

Thanks,

Michele
