✨ NAME ✨

Hiii bestie πŸ’– you're reading amtider(1) from the General Commands Manual, and this is the Intel AMT IDE redirection (ider) client. That's the name, that's the vibe, slay.

πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

amtider [ options ] host[:port] file

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

Okay so amtider gives Intel AMT managed machines a virtual floppy or CD-ROM. Iconic.

host is the hostname or IP address of the machine amtider should connect to. port is the tcp port to use, and if you don't specify it, it defaults to 16994 β€” the standard AMT redirection port. file is the filename of the image to be used for floppy or CD-ROM emulation. No cap.

πŸ’… OPTIONS πŸ’…

  • -h β€” display help text.
  • -v β€” be verbose (default).
  • -q β€” be quiet.
  • -u <user> β€” specify username, defaults to "admin".
  • -p <pass> β€” specify password. The page says amtterm will prompt on the terminal if unspecified (yes, amtterm β€” quoted as-is, bestie πŸ™ˆ).
  • -c β€” use CD-ROM emulation (this is the default).
  • -f β€” use Floppy emulation.
  • -g β€” start redirection gracefully.
  • -r β€” start redirection on reboot.

🌸 ENVIRONMENT 🌸

  • AMT_PASSWORD β€” default value for the password. So if you're not passing one, this is the vibe.

πŸ’€ NOTE πŸ’€

Newer AMT machines have the SoL port disabled by default, bestie. You can enable it remotely using:
wsman put http://intel.com/wbem/wscim/1/amt-schema/1/AMT_RedirectionService -h ${AMT_HOST} -P 16992 -u admin -p ${AMT_PASSWORD} -k ListenerEnabled=true
