Dell PowerEdge T40 AMT KVM support

The technical specification for the Dell PowerEdge T40 states that it supports Intel AMT 12 but not vPRO. Does this server support management via KVM (with CPU Xeon E-2224)?

Hi, in this document  it says it has vPro. Even if you swap in the Xeon E-2224G, which does support vPro and has integrated graphics, there's no guarantee that KVM over IP via Intel AMT will work on the PowerEdge T40. Dell might have disabled or limited those features in the BIOS or firmware.

Hello,

 

The Dell PowerEdge T40, when equipped with the Intel Xeon E-2224 processor, does not support full KVM-over-IP functionality via Intel vPro, because:

 

Key Technical Details

  • The Intel Xeon E-2224 supports Intel AMT 12.0, but not Intel vPro
  • Intel AMT (Active Management Technology) provides some remote management capabilities, but KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) redirection is only available on platforms that support Intel vPro with Intel integrated graphics.
  • The Xeon E-2224 lacks integrated graphics (it is not the E-2224G variant), which is a requirement for AMT-based KVM.

 

Summary

Feature   -        Supported on T40 with Xeon E-2224

Intel AMT 12.0         - Yes

Intel vPro         - No

KVM-over-IP via AMT - No (requires vPro + iGPU)

iDRAC (Dell Remote Access Controller) - Not available on T40

@DELL-Charles RWill the KVM work if the Xeon E-2224G is installed?
