The ACPI 2.0 specification defines power management behavior for device classes differently. For example, audio device
states D0–D3, are not similar to modem device states. Refer to Appendix A of the ACPI 2.0 specification for a detailed dis-
cussion of device power management.

The power management policy for the network class specifies how a network device behaves at a Dx power state (see
Table
569). For example, a device, not the wire-speed of the device, needs to wake up during WOL mode. A network wake
up may be initiated by a Magic Packet or similar unique packet format.

(ACPI 2.0 spec) shows the power management behavior for the network

Table 569: Power Management Policy for the Network Class

Cause/Effect
• Cause = System enters sleep state S1-S4
• Effect = If wake is enabled, the lowest Dx state is chosen for the network device.
There is one limitation, in that the Dx state must support the wakeup.
• Cause = System initiated network shutdown
• Effect = System enters sleep state. The device may provide wake capability, but it is
not required.
• Cause = System wakeup.
• Effect = Device moves to full-power operation.
