Change MEBx Password (HP highly recommends that this password be changed. The default

In order to remotely manage AMT systems, the administrator must use a remote console that supports
AMT. Enterprise management consoles are available from suppliers such as HP OpenView (not
currently available for Windows Vista), Altiris and Microsoft SMS. In SMB mode, the client provides a
Web browser interface. To access this feature, open a browser from any other system on the network
and enter http://host_name:16992 where host_name is the name assigned to the system.
Alternatively, the IP address may be used in place of the host name.
