Intel vPro over WiMax aka welcome to Minneapolis and Ely, MN. Video Clips. Duration : 3.00 Mins.


The demonstration of some of the more advanced vPro and AMT features, and how they can make even the most remote problems manageable. To show this, you need two laptops both vPro capable of course, and two WiMax adapters. The problem will be a laptop in the field that does not boot, a common and annoying problem for most IT organizations. Adding to the problem is the fact that the support staff is out in the field as well, far from the organization's office. Upon getting the call that there is a laptop that will not boot, the technician takes out her laptop, fires it up, connects to the remote machine. Using the encryption and remote KVM capabilities of vPro, AMT, and AES-NI, an encrypted and hidden partition is accessed, and the laptop is re-imaged in the field. This could also be done by sending the OS image over WiMax, but that is not very fast. For an IDF demo, you could set up one workstation on one side of Moscone, and another on the other side of the hall. One workstation would have a script that essentially formats the C: drive, and a big sign that says "Break Windows Here". The other side would have a script that allows you to restore the remote machine with a big sign that says "Fix Windows Here". Use flashing lights where appropriate. We would highly recommend hanging an old fashioned multi-paned window high above the demo area with some nerf balls to throw at the window to break the "windows" For the demo, WiFi might be faster than WiMax, but either one will do.
