Intel vPro Enterprise with AMT 6.0 or later. Requires a Q-series or W-series chipset (or mobile vPro equivalent). Consumer H/B/Z chipsets have no AMT firmware.
| Generation | AMT version | CSME | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sandy Bridge (2nd gen) | 7.x | — | |
| Ivy Bridge (3rd gen) | 8.x | — | |
| Haswell (4th gen) | 9.x | — | amtterm broken on AMT ≥9; IMC works |
| Broadwell (5th gen) | 10.x | — | |
| Skylake (6th gen) | 11.x | 11.x | |
| Kaby Lake (7th gen) | 11.6 | 11.6 | |
| Coffee Lake (8th/9th gen) | 12.x | 12.x | |
| Comet Lake (10th gen) | 14.x | 14.x | |
| Tiger Lake (11th gen) | 15.x | 15.x | |
| Alder Lake (12th gen) | 16.x | 16.1+ | TLS-only enforcement — cleartext ports dropped on some ops |
| Raptor Lake (13th gen) | 16.1 | 16.1+ | Same as Alder Lake |
| Meteor Lake / Core Ultra | 18.x | — |
Alder Lake and Raptor Lake machines with CSME 16.1+ enforce TLS for some AMT operations. amt-protocol.js auto-upgrades IDER connections from port 16994 → 16995 on ECONNREFUSED. For WS-Man, always select TLS (port 16993) in the IMC connection settings.

| Hardware | Reason |
|---|---|
| Consumer chipsets (H/B/Z) | No AMT firmware |
| AMD platforms | AMT is Intel-only |
| Xeon Scalable (server) | Use IPMI / Redfish / iDRAC instead |
| vPro Essentials / Evo | In-band management only — no OOB |
| ARM | Not supported |
