Active Management Technology (AMT) tools

descriptions from man pages:

amttool - remotely control Intel AMT managed machines.
amtterm - Intel AMT serial-over-lan (sol) client.

from amt-howto(7):

What is AMT and why I should care? AMT stands for "Active Management Technology". It provides some remote management facilities. They are handled by the hardware and firmware, thus they work independant from the operation system. Means: It works before Linux bootet up to the point where it activated the network interface. It works even when your most recent test kernel deadlocked the machine. Which makes it quite useful for development machines ...

   Intel  AMT  is  part  of the vPro Platform.  Recent intel-chipset based
   business machines should have it.  My fairly new Intel SDV machine  has
   it too.
