Intel AMT SDK 11 Release Notes

If you are working on developing your own Intel AMT Manageability Console you can find important release notes inside the SDK root-level folder.  Look for a HTML file called “Intel AMT Release 11.0 SDK Release Notes”.

If you are facing issues in your integration process, you should check the notes to verify where your issues are occurring.  Here are the notes associated with the Intel AMT 11 release.

Notes:

• WLAN provisioning with USB Key will not allow TLS enablement on LAN-less platforms in Intel AMT Release 9.5. 
• The C++ samples fail to compile on Windows* 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 due to a bug in the Windows SDK function mt.exe. For further information and workaround see the Windows 7 SDK: Beta Release Notes. Note that a file compiled on other Windows operating systems, such as XP or Vista, will also execute on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
• The "Configure Default KVM Port" script sets the RFB password. This script contains WinRM commands and may change the user's WinRM configuration.
• Microsoft WinRM - Intel AMT interrupt on associations: The WinRM client fails to perform a retrieval or delete of an instance of an association class using an EPR when its selectors are also EPRs. An example where this capability is needed in Intel AMT is the System Defense association  AMT_ActiveFilterStatistics.
• Redirection library provides AES 256 cipher suites as an option although only AES 128 ciphers are supported by Intel AMT.
• UCT Tool: Cannot delete or update the application settings file while the application is running.
• Because of limitations within the Tight VNC application (a third-party application for KVM), asterisks will not appear when entering the opt-in code. In addition, while Intel AMT will respond to keyboard and mouse actions, these will not show in the client until the user refreshes the display.
• Samples and other applications which use signed DLLs are loaded very slowly. This can occur because .NET Framework repeatedly attempts to verify the signed DLL files, even when there is no internet connection.
