Microsoft Windows Server 2008 is ACPI-capable. Windows does not support waking from a power-off (S5) state, only
from standby (S3) or hibernate (S4). When shutting down the system, these states shut down ACPI devices, including
Intel adapters. This disarms the adapter's remote wake-up capability. However, in some ACPI-capable computers, the
BIOS may have a setting that allows you to override the operating system and wake from an S5 state anyway. If there is
no support for wake from S5 state in your BIOS settings, you are limited to Wake From Standby when using these oper-
ating systems in ACPI computers.
For some adapters, the Power Management tab in Intel PROSet includes a setting called Wake on Magic Packet from
power off state. Enable this setting to explicitly allow wake-up with a Magic Packet* from shutdown under APM power
management mode.
In ACPI-capable versions of Windows, the Intel PROSet Power Management tab includes Wake on Magic Packet and
Wake on directed packet settings. These control the type of packets that wake up the system from standby.
NOTES:
To use the Wake on Directed Packet feature, WOL must first be enabled in the EEPROM using
l
BootUtil.
Wake on LAN is only supported on the following adapters:

Wake on Link Settings
Wakes the computer if the network connection establishes link while the computer is in standby mode. You can enable
the feature, disable it, or let the operating system use its default.
NOTES:
To use the Wake on Link feature with the Intel® PRO/1000 PT Dual Port Server Adapter, Intel®
l
PRO/1000 PT Server Adapter or Intel® PRO/1000 PF Server Adapter, WOL must first be enabled in the
EEPROM using BootUtil.
If a copper-based Intel adapter is advertising a speed of one gigabit only, this feature does not work
l
because the adapter cannot identify a gigabit link at a D3 state.
