Wake-On-LAN
Wake-On-LAN (WOL) is defined as the ability of a remote management ap-
plication to power up a computer that is powered off. Remote PC setup,
updates and asset tracking can occur after hours and on weekends so that
daily LAN maintenance traffic can be kept to a minimum and LAN-system
users are not needlessly interrupted during normal work hours. The
motherboards have a 3-pin WOL header to connect to the 3-pin header on
a Network Interface Card (NIC) that has WOL capability. Wake-On-LAN
must be enabled in the BIOS. Note that Wake-On-Lan can only be used with
an ATX 2.01 (or above) compliant power supply.
1-6 Power Supply
As with all computer products, a stable power source is necessary for
proper and reliable operation. It is especially important for processors that
have CPU clock rates of 1 GHz and above.
NOTE: Auxiliary 12v power (J23/24) is necessary to support Intel
Xeon CPUs. Failure to provide such extra power will result in the
CPUs becoming unstable after only a few minutes of operation.
See Section 2-6 for details on connecting the power supply cables.
The SUPER P4DC6/P4DC6+/P4DC6+II/P4DCE/P4DCE+/P4DCE+II accommodates
ATX power supplies. Although most power supplies generally meet the
specifications required by the CPU, some are inadequate. You should use
one that will supply at least 400W of power and includes the additional
+12V, 8-pin and 4-pin power connectors - an even higher wattage power
supply is recommended for high-load configurations. Your power supply
must also supply 1.5A for the LAN port. It is strongly recommended that
you use a high quality power supply that meets ATX power supply specifi-
cation 2.02 or above. It must also be SSI compliant (info at http://
www.ssiforum.org/). Additionally, in areas where noisy power transmis-
sion is present, you may choose to install a line filter to shield the computer
from noise. It is recommended that you also install a power surge protector
to help avoid problems caused by power surges.
