Remote Power-On Feature (Wake On LAN)
The remote power-on function turns on the server through a network. It sends a special packet from
the management computer to a remote server to turn it on if the server is off-powered.
To enable this feature, you must select "Enabled" for each submenu in the Power Management
Setup of the Advanced menu of the BIOS setup utility, "SETUP." (See Chapter 4.)
The remote power-on feature is not available in the following cases. Press the POWER switch once
to start the OS, and turn off the server in an appropriate procedure.
„
Abnormal previous system shut-down
„
No power supply to the server (due to turned-off breaker, disconnected power cord, power
blackout, etc.)
AC LINK Feature
When the power cord of the server is connected to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) unit, the
server supports the power linkage feature that enables control over the power supply from the UPS
to the server. The AC LINK feature can be enabled or disabled with Power Management Setup in
the Server menu of the BIOS setup utility, "SETUP." (See Chapter 4.)

access to the system. Once the security measures are enabled, access to the system is allowed only
after the user enters the correct password(s). For example:

Set and enable a user password
