Wakeup On LAN determines whether the Wakeup On LAN feature is set. The set- tings for Wakeup On LAN are:

‡

‡

‡

Off

On (Add-in NIC)

On (Integrated NIC)

If On (Add-in NIC) or On (Integrated NIC) is selected, a special local area network (LAN) signal from a server management console starts the system. Wakeup On LAN capability also allows remote computer setup, BIOS upgrades, software downloading and installation, file updates, and asset tracking after hours and on weekends when LAN traffic is typically at a minimum. You must reboot your system for a change to take effect.

NOTE: The Wakeup On LAN feature functions even when the computer is turned off; however, the computer must be plugged into a working electrical outlet at all times and must be shut down in the normal method expected by the operating system. Thus, if you disconnect the system power cable from its electrical outlet, if a power failure occurs, or if you shut down the system abnormally, the Wakeup On LAN fea- ture will not work.

For certain types of monitors and most EIDE hard-disk drives, you can reduce system power consumption by enabling the power management feature. With power man- agement enabled, these monitors and drives automatically switch into low-power mode during periods of system inactivity.

Power Management can be implemented at three levels—Maximum, Regular, and Minimum. (The different levels apply to the monitor only; hard-disk drive operation is 6DYLQJthe same0RQLWRU3RZHUfor all three.) The default for this option is Disabled.

If you have a Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA®) Display Power Man- agement Signaling (DPMS)-compliant monitor, enabling the power management option reduces monitor power consumption during periods of keyboard and mouse inactivity.
