Installation and Reference for the BayStack 21 PCI 10/100 Adapter w/WOL

Information Technology (IT) organizations sometimes prefer to perform tasks such as installing software, running virus scans, and backing up disk drives during nonbusiness hours to avoid interrupting users during prime usage times. Although organizations may use remote software installation tools or other automated software, IT personnel may have to turn on each workstation for the software to run. This use of IT resources is inefficient and expensive.

The remote wake-up feature gives IT personnel the ability to turn workstations on remotely. You can use the wake-up capability to turn remote machines on automatically, thus further decreasing IT personnel tasks. Workstations that have been turned on can be directed to run virus scans or software upgrades and then to return to a turned off mode. This combination of remote access and automatic wake-up feature saves IT personnel time and increases user productivity by avoiding delays and disruptions during work hours.
