Wake on LAN

The Wake on LAN (WOL) feature operates according to a published specification. In simple terms, the specification enables designers to build network adapters that are capable of “listening” to network activity even when the computer is turned off.

WOL adapters have a special low-power standby mode that is active when the rest of the computer is without power. The adapter will respond to a special wake-up packet sent by another computer or network device. Typically, this wake-up packet causes the adapter to signal the computer to restart and run a predefined program.

Virtual LAN

A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical grouping of network devices put together as a LAN regardless of their physical grouping or collision domains. If you use the VLAN, the following is required:

vWindows NT 4.0 with Service Pack 4.0 (or later) or Service Pack 3.0 and the NDIS driver hotfix from Microsoft.

When a VLAN is used, a user can see and access only specified network segments. This improves network performance and improves network security. VLANs offer the ability to group users and stations together into logical work-groups. This can simplify network administration when clients are connecting to servers that are geographically dispersed across a building, a campus, or an enterprise network.

Typically, VLANs consist of co-workers within the same department but in different locations, groups of users running the same network protocol, or a cross-functional team working on a joint project. Joining workers with VLANs forms logical working groups.

Normally, VLANs are configured at the switch and any computer can be a member of one VLAN per installed network adapter. The PRO/100 adapter supersedes this by communicating directly with a switch, so that up to 64 VLANs can be on a single adapter. To set up VLAN membership, your adapter must be attached to a switch that has VLAN capability.

How to Join a VLAN From Windows NT 4.0

To join a VLAN, do as follows:

1.Create a VLAN on the switch. Use the parameters you assign there to join the VLAN from the server. For more information for your switch, see the documentation.

2.Double-clickNetwork in Control Panel.
