Remote Wakeup support is available only when using an
RJ-45 network connection.
For more information on Remote Wakeup, refer to the
Intelligent Manageability guide, or to the online Remote
Management Administrators Guide. The Remote
Management Administrators Guide is included with the
Remote Management Administration Tools, and is
available on the Support Software CD for Compaq
Desktop, Portable, and Workstation Products or at the
Compaq Web Site at www.compaq.com.
Select Ethernet network interface controllers include network
status lights:
The link light illuminates when the system is physically
connected to an active network.
The activity light illuminates when the workstation
detects network activity. When the system is connected
to a highly used network, the activity light will remain
on almost constantly.
The 100TX light illuminates during 100-Mbs operation.
Some NICs include only two network status lights where link
(light on) and activity (light blinking) are indicated by one light
and 100-Mbs operation is indicated by the second light.
If Remote Wakeup is enabled, the link and activity lights will
remain functional even when power to the workstation is turned
off.
