OMMUNICATIONS
Workstations with preinstalled network interface controllers
(NIC) and network device drivers are network-ready.
NIC-Based Alerts
Select models (Intel 820 chipset) feature NIC-based alert
support which allows a system administrator to remotely
monitor workstations over the network. The workstation can
send hardware and operating system failure alerts over the
network before the operating system is loaded or when the
workstation is powered off. Depending on the NIC model, these
alerts may include:
■ system BIOS hang
■
operating system hang
■ processor missing
■
operating temperature exceeded
■ chassis intrusion
Remote Wakeup
Support
Select NICs feature Remote Wakeup support, which allows the
system administrator to turn on power to a client workstation
from a remote location, through the use of supported PC LAN
management tools.
CAUTION:
If you experience network problems, or problems with
starting your workstation, check to ensure that the Remote Wakeup
cable is connected to the NIC board and to the expansion board
cage. If this cable is disconnected, the system will not operate
reliably.
