Best Practices for Configuring Intel vPro in Design Workstations

[leoarthur]

Hi everyone,

I’m looking to optimize my design workstations using Intel vPro technology and would love to hear some best practices from those who have experience with it. Here are a few specific areas I’m interested in:

1.      Initial Setup: Start by enabling Intel Active Management Technology (AMT) in the BIOS. This allows remote management capabilities. Ensure you have the latest firmware updates for both the BIOS and vPro.

2.      Security Settings: Enable secure boot and configure the vPro settings to require strong passwords for remote access. Consider using Intel Endpoint Management Assistant for better control over your devices.

3.      Performance Tweaks: Allocate more resources to graphics in the BIOS settings and optimize power settings for performance rather than energy saving. Regularly update your drivers and keep your design software up to date for the best compatibility.

If you have any recommendations or insights based on your experiences, I’d greatly appreciate it!

Thanks in advance!
