AMT (included in Intel vPro and Centrino Pro) provides out-of-band (OOB) management for Desktops and Laptops, using an agent integrated in the network adapter and in the motherboard. Serial-over-lan provides a secure way to connect a remote computer, through a pseudo serial interface. amtterm and gamt are two terminal tools to connect to that pseudo serial interface from a remote computer. amttool is a perl script to gather information about and remotely control AMT managed computers. Note that AMT 9.0 dropped support for the old SOAP- protocol-based communication this package implements. Newer versions use WS Management implemented starting with AMT 3.0 and are not supported by this software.
