Motherboard: Intel DQ77KB, the latest BIOS & AMT fw.
both ethernet interfaces connected,
DHCP configured only the the first  (managment) or only the second - the
same result:
after appr. 5 min ? AMT can't be accesed.
(Same result on a few such a PCs which we have about ten in lab)

FreeBSD:
  9.1 amd64, SVN-updated and recompiled (kernel+world) on 11 May:

if_em driver:
