More Information:
The ASF feature provides firmware functionality that implements behavior described in the ASF specification. Alerting technologies provide advance warning and system failure indication from managed clients to remote management consoles. Once a system alert provides its warning or error report, the next step in remote system manageability is to allow corrective action to be taken — these actions include the ability to remotely reset or power-on or -off the client system.
Bases on the system reported status code, the driver will send warning or system failure indication from managed clients to remote management consoles.
Asf initialize and send standard progress messages to NIC.
Install Asf Acpi table and register RSC handle to send progress/error event logs to NIC. Produce Asf Dxe protocol.
