![]() ![]() I've already posted on the correct way to do it here. I've only used it in a LAN environment, not WAN. It is complicated, there is good and bad info in here, and yet I've gotten it to work in every HP workstation or business class desktop I've tried. 5.6.1 Advanced Power Management Wake Up Advanced Power Management Wake Up or APM Wakeup (also known as Wake on LAN) is a feature that existed in earlier 10/100 Mb/s NICs. You need to turn off some of the defaults to force the box to accept the energy inefficiencies so that WOL can work.Īnd, of course, the later workstations/business class boxes have some European energy settings thrown in that you need to take into account. At this point, protos suggestion of ipmitool seems worth investigating, at least if you need to script startup/shutdown. Wake on LAN is inherently energy inefficient. The basic idea: HP factory default settings are optimized for functionality and energy efficiency. After you get it working then you can carefully add back in the fine tuning to drop boot times, etc. Step 1: Update the BIOS Step 2: Disable Hybrid Shutdown mode Step 3: Enable Wake On LAN (WOL) setting for LAN driver Step 4: Manually add the HP registry key. And, the differences between HP workstations and HP business class computers needs to be taken into account.įactory defaults is a good point to start from but you specifically need to change from those in the process. Then, the HP workstations changed over time, both in hardware and BIOS software. Click Network Setting > Home Networking > Wake on Lan to open this screen: Enter the computers internal IP address or its MAC address and press the 'Wake Up' button. There are BIOS things you have to get right and also OS things. In the manual, see on page 137 the section of 'The Wake on LAN Screen'.
