Alert on LAN generates notifications to the server of these occurrences:
vComputer disconnected from the network
vComputer unplugged from the power outlet
vAll POST errors

Alert on LAN events are configured to be Enabled or Disabled from the LAN server only, and not from the computer. See the LAN administrator for configuration status information.
