# User Consent

User consent is a new feature available in Intel AMT 6.0 and higher. If user consent is enabled when a remote connection to a computer starts, a message shows on the computer of the user. The message contains a code that the user must give to the person who wants to connect to his computer. The remote user cannot continue the operation until he supplies this code.

- Intel AMT 6.x – The user consent feature is available only for KVM Redirection.
- Intel AMT 7.x and higher – For devices in Admin Control mode you can define which operations require user consent. For devices in Client Control mode, user consent is mandatory for these operations:
  - Serial Over LAN to redirect BIOS screens and OS Boot text screens
  - KVM Redirection
  - To remotely set BIOS boot options
  - To change the source for remote boot (for example, boot from PXE)
  - IDE-Redirection (IDE-R) (through AMT 10)

Note: IDE-R is replaced with USB-R in AMT 11.0 and higher
