1-2 Wakeup On LAN

The Wakeup On LAN function allows computers to be turned on via

network, and system administrators may benefit from this feature to a great

extent. For instance, the system administrator is no longer required to visit a

remote site and install an application to all of the computers there; after all

the users have left, he/she can simply power on the computers remotely via

a network and do the job to each PC, all from the comfort of his/her own

chair.

Wakeup On LAN is activated as the target PC receives a special packet

called Magic Packet from the system administrator's computer. The target

PC starts up automatically.

To enable Wakeup On LAN, you will need a computer with Wakeup On

LAN support and a software package for transmitting Wakeup On LAN

packets (ex. Intel LAN Desk Client Manager and others) besides the FNW-

9802-T Ethernet Adapter itself.

Please refer to the user's manual of each software package for procedures to

enable Wakeup On LAN.
