over HTTP (deprecated starting with Release 6.0) or with WS-Management over

name, the Intel LMS, which listens for traffic directed to the host name,

intercepts the message and routes it to the Intel MEI.

The Intel AMT Watchdog is an OS Health (Hang/Crash) watchdog.
88
83
Whenever the OS hangs or crashes, Intel AMT will send an event
···
85

IT knows when a platform crashes even when there is a hard failure on the host.
86
91
87
92
The Intel AMT Watchdog is composed of two parts:
88
-
1) Firmware feature - receives the heartbeats
89
-
and sends an event when the heartbeats stop.
90
-
2) Intel MEI iAMT watchdog driver - connects to the watchdog feature,
91
-
configures the watchdog and sends the heartbeats.
