Intel Desktop Board D815EEA Product Guide

Wake on LAN Technology

The Wake on LAN technology connector can be used with PCI bus network adapters that have a remote wake-up connector. Network adapters that are PCI 2.2 compliant assert the wake-up signal using the PCI bus signal PME# (pin A19 on the PCI bus connectors). See Figure 22 on page 67 for the location of the Wake on LAN technology connector on the desktop board.

CAUTION

For Wake on LAN technology, the 5-V standby line for the power supply must be capable of providing adequate +5-V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when implementing Wake on LAN technology can damage the power supply.

Instantly Available Technology

Instantly Available technology enables the board to enter the ACPI S3 (Suspend-to-RAM) sleep state. While in the S3 sleep state, the computer will appear to be off. When signaled by a wake-up device or event, the system quickly returns to its last known awake state.

The desktop board standby power indicator, shown in Figure 2 on page 18, is lit when the memory modules and PCI bus connectors have power, even when the computer appears to be off.

If the system has a dual-colored power LED on the front panel, the sleep state is indicated by the LED turning amber. For more information about front panel LED states, see the Intel® Desktop Board D815EEA Technical Product Specification.
