Clock settings & network time protocol (NTP)
You may manually set the IP Power’s internal clock by specifying the year, month,
day, hour, minutes and seconds.
Alternately, you may choose to synchronize with an NTP server by entering its IP
address and your numeric Time Zone (relative to UTC). If your network or ISP
doesn’t have an NTP server, lists of public NTP servers are available on the web.
Wake on LAN (WOL)
Through its network port, the IP Power can send a Wake on LAN packet to a
shutdown or hibernating PC on your network, causing it to power up. This facility
presumes:
1.
The PC’s motherboard must support the WOL function, and it must be enabled
in the BIOS (typically under Power Management). The PC must be connected to
the same Ethernet network as the IP Power via its network port.
2.
The PC’s network card’s WOL connector must be connected to the
motherboard, or the network port must be integrated into the motherboard.
After setting up the motherboard and network card, use the WOL function by
following two steps:
•
Go to
Network Wakeup
on the IP Power control web
pages
•
Enter the MAC address (the network card’s physical
address) of the PC and click
Send
– the PC will be powered on
