Remote Management

In some cases, you cannot gain physical access to your device once it has been deployed. Windows XP provides a comprehensive set of features to help administer a target device, including Remote Desktop (Terminal Services) and Telnet, which enable you to manage your system from a remote location. Other services and features include File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

You can also create a Windows-based Terminal (WBT) that you can manage remotely.

Note   A remotely managed system must recover automatically from an error. You can use message interception to acknowledge system errors without requiring user interaction.
