Feature Request: Native Intel AMT / vPro Support (Out-of-Band Management)

Description

With Tactical RMM moving towards native remote control and potentially replacing MeshCentral, it would be great to have native Intel AMT / vPro support integrated directly into Tactical RMM.

MeshCentral currently provides valuable out-of-band management capabilities that are particularly useful for servers, workstations, and virtualization hosts.

Losing these capabilities would be a significant drawback for environments relying on Intel AMT.

Suggested Features

• Agentless device management: Connect to Intel AMT-enabled devices without requiring a running operating system or Tactical RMM agent.
• Remote power management: Power on, power off, reset, and power cycle devices.
• Hardware KVM: Access the remote console, including BIOS/UEFI, even when the operating system is unavailable.
• Device integration: Manage AMT functionality directly from the existing Tactical RMM device interface.
• Headless server support: Manage Proxmox and other virtualization hosts without a connected monitor.

Use Case

We use Tactical RMM to manage our IT infrastructure, including Proxmox virtualization hosts equipped with Intel vPro/AMT.

Out-of-band access is especially important when a hypervisor crashes, becomes unreachable, or requires BIOS-level maintenance.

Having these capabilities integrated directly into Tactical RMM would eliminate the need to maintain a separate MeshCentral instance.

Question

Are there any plans to implement native Intel AMT support as part of the ongoing replacement of MeshCentral?

If a full native implementation is not currently planned, would it be possible to retain Intel AMT functionality through an optional MeshCentral integration?

Thanks for considering this feature!
