amttool(1) General Commands Manual amttool(1) NAME
amttool - remotely control Intel AMT managed machines. SYNOPSIS
amttool host [ command ] [ arg(s) ] DESCRIPTION
amttool is a perl script which speaks SOAP to Intel AMT managed machines. It can query informations about the machine in question and also send some commands for basic remote control. host is the hostname or IP address of the machine amttool should control. command is an optional command. You must set fill AMT_PASSWORD environment variable with the AMT password. For more inforamtions on Intel AMT check amt-howto(7). COMMANDS
info gather information (default). reset [ special ] reset machine, with optional special command (see section below). powerup [ special ] turn on machine. powerdown turn off machine. powercycle [ special ] powercycle machine. netinfo print network configuration (requires AMT 2.5+). netconf if link [ ip mask gw [ dns1 [ dns2 ]]] configure network interface (requires AMT 2.5+). if is the interface handle, link the link policy. If in doubt just feed in what the netinfo command prints. ip is the IPv4 address, mask the netmask, gw the default gateway, dns1 and dns2 are the DNS Servers. If no IP configuration is specified the tool tries to configure the machine in shared mac address mode with dhcp, otherwise in sepa- rate mac address mode with static IP address. Default for dns1 is the gateway address, for dns2 it is 0.0.0.0. SPECIAL COMMANDS
Special commands can optionally be specified for reset, powerup and powercycle. They change the default boot behavior of the machine. bios Asks for the BIOS boot messages being redirected to serial-over-lan. pxe Network boot via PXE. hd Boot from local disk. hdsafe Boot from local disk (safe mode). cd Boot from CD/DVD. diag Boot in diagnostics mode. ENVIRONMENT
AMT_PASSWORD AMT password. AMT_DEBUG Enable debug output. SEE ALSO

ifconfig(8c) ifconfig(8c) Name ifconfig - configure network interface parameters Syntax /etc/ifconfig interface [ address [ dest_address ] ] [ parameters ] Description The command assigns an address to a network interface and/or configures network interface parameters. You must use at boot time to define the network address of each interface present on a machine. You can also use it at a later time to redefine an interface's address. The interface parameter is a string of the form: name, unit, for example, en0. The address is either a host name present in the host name data base, or a DARPA Internet address expressed in the Internet standard dot notation. Arguments You can set the following parameters with up Marks an interface up. down Marks an interface down. When an interface is marked down, the system does not attempt to transmit messages through that inter- face. trailers Enables the use of a trailer link level encapsulation when sending. If a network interface supports trailers, the system, when possible, encapsulates outgoing messages in a manner that minimizes the number of memory-to-memory copy operations performed by the receiver. Although trailers is the default on some network interfaces, the use of trailers is not recommended; failures in trailer negotia- tion can disrupt network transmissions. See -trailers. -trailers Disables the use of a trailer link level encapsulation. This is the recommended setting. promisc Enables the use of the in the promiscuous mode. The promiscuous mode allows the network interface to receive all the packets off the wire and pass it onto to the packet filter. -promisc Disables the promiscuous mode of the packet filter. This is the default. +copyall Sets the interface into copy-all mode (receives packets sent/received by the kernel-resident protocol software [for example, IP, ARP, DECnet, LAT] on this host). -copyall Disables copy-all mode. (See for more information aboutut the flag.) arp Enables the use of the Address Resolution Protocol in mapping between network level addresses and link level addresses. This is the default. This is currently implemented for mapping between DARPA Internet addresses and 10Mb/s Ethernet addresses. -arp Disables the use of the Address Resolution Protocol. debug Enables driver-dependent debugging code. Usually, this turns on extra console error logging. -debug Disables driver dependent debugging code. netmask Specifies how many bits of the address you wish to reserve for subdividing Class A and B networks into sub-networks. (Inet only). dstaddr Specifies the correspondent on the other end of a point to point link. broadcast Specifies the address you wish to use to represent broadcasts to the network. The command displays the current configuration for a network interface when no optional parameters are supplied. Only the superuser can modify the configuration of a network interface. Diagnostics The command returns messages indicating the specified interface does not exist, the requested address is unknown, the user tried to alter an interface's configuration but is not privileged.
