Remote Wakeup allows the network interface controller to
continue functioning, even when power to the workstation has
been turned off.
The workstation continues to consume a small amount of
electricity even after you turn it off. Only when you
disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet does
the workstation stop consuming electricity.
To enable Remote Wakeup and Remote Shutdown, complete
the following steps:
1. Double-click the Network Icon, located in the Control
Panel.
2. Double-click the appropriate network controller.
3. Click the Advanced Properties tab.
4. Select Remote Wakeup.
5. Change the value to ON.
6. Click OK to save and apply changes, then click OK to exit
the Network dialog.
For more information on using Remote Wakeup and Remote
Shutdown, refer to the online Remote Management
Administrators Guide. The Remote Management Administrators
Guide is included with the Remote Management Setup Utilities,
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.
The NIC Alert function enables select desktop workstations
(Intel 820 chipset) to send an immediate alert to the network
administrator when there is a hardware or operating system
failure, or evidence of tampering, even if the system is powered
off or the operating system is not yet loaded.
