Intel Vpro and Ultravnc

[davidgrudek]

" VNC-based KVM Remote ControlIn vPro 6.0 PCs with embedded Intel graphics, Intel AMT embeds a proprietary VNC Server, so you can connect out-of-band using dedicated VNC-compatible Viewer technology, and have full KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) capability throughout the power cycle - including uninterrupted control of the desktop when an operating system loads. Clients such as VNC Viewer Plus from RealVNC also provide additional functionality that might make it easier to perform (and watch) certain Intel AMT operations, such as powering the computer off and on, configuring the BIOS, and mounting a remote image (IDER).

Will Ultravnc's viewer support Intels AMT sol Vpro features as well or only RealVNC? Does anyone have experience with this?

Thanks for your help!!!

Interesting question, David. I haven't used it yet, but I THINK that any VNC viewer should work fine. From

KVM is based on the RealVNC Limited* Remote Frame Buffer (RFB) protocol. In fact, off-the-shelf viewers based on the RFB protocol work in conjunction with Intel AMT without modification.
