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

       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-
