Desktop Management: Centralized Control Across Distributed Systems
Overview Companies looking to reduce the high cost of managing PCs and extend administrative control can do so while retaining the scalability and strategic flexibility of distributed computing. Enhanced NICs are transforming the current and future generations of full-powered, full-featured PCs into manageable PCs. This white paper compares the Managed PC solution to three other possible approaches: network computers (NCs), Net PCs, or strict enforcement of standard desktop configurations. It explains the basic components of Managed PCs and three key applications: Remote Wake Up, Managed PC Boot Agent, and remote inventory in compliance with the DMI 2.0 industry specification. The paper also discusses other emerging management standards and technologies.
