Wake on LAN
The Wake on LAN feature requires a Wake on LAN network card. A
network administrator can use this feature to turn on your computer from a
remote location. When Wake on LAN is used in conjunction with network
management software, such as Netfinity Manager

(provided on the
Software Selections CD that comes with your computer), many types of
functions, such as data transfers, software updates, and POST or BIOS
updates to your computer can be initiated remotely. For more information,
see the documentation that comes with your Ethernet adapter.
Note: If the computer power cord is plugged into a surge protector, make
sure that when you turn off power you use the computer power
switch and not the surge protector switch. Otherwise, the Wake on
LAN feature will not work.
Alert on LAN
Your computer supports Alert on LAN technology. Alert on LAN
technology provides notification of changes in the computer system even if
the computer is powered off. Working with DMI and Wake on LAN
technologies, Alert on LAN helps to manage and monitor the hardware and
software features of your computer.
Alert on LAN generates notifications when the internal computer
components have been removed, POST fails during a Wake on LAN
attempt, or the computer is disconnected from the network or unplugged
from the power outlet. Alert on LAN can be integrated with
network-management software such as Intel LANClient Control Manager
and IBM Netfinity Manager.
Remote Program Load or Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol
If your computer comes with an Ethernet adapter, a network administrator
can use Remote Program Load (RPL) or Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) to control your computer. If you use RPL in conjunction
with software such as IBM LANClient Control Manager

, you can use a
feature called Hybrid RPL, which installs hybrid images (or files) on the
hard disk. Then, each time the computer starts from the network,
LANClient Control Manager recognizes your computer as a Hybrid RPL
client and a bootstrap program is downloaded to your computer hard disk.
