WoL is enabled on a Windows device in both the BIOS and Device Manager.Īs the BIOS location of the WoL settings is vendor dependent, we would suggest consulting the manufacturer's documentation to determine whether WoL is supported on the target system along with details of their WoL implementation and the specifics of enabling this feature. The following section focuses on the steps to enable WoL on a Windows computer, although this may vary by manufacturer. To utilize the Wake on LAN Automated Task, the target computer must be on the same local area network as the device running the script, both the target computer and network should be configured to support WoL communications and the computer connected to a power source.

Wake on LAN is a simple application, no different from the other of its kind. The Wake-on-LAN implementation is designed to be very simple and to be quickly processed by the circuitry present on the network interface card with minimal power requirement. A standard wake-on-LAN tool with a modern GUI Unfortunately, there are no options to ping a host or send network messages or instructions to the target computer, so you will have to stick to the “Net Send” command via the Windows console to do so. You can configure the wake-on-LAN port number and instruct the application to use directed broadcast by specifying the IP address of the target workstation. The restart or shutdown timeout can be customized in the “Settings” window.

The application can also run a deep scan to detect other hosts in the network. You simply have to hit the “Search” button to have Wake on LAN retrieve a list of the workstations in the given network. Automatic discovery is in place and the application displays a suggestion of the IP range to scan. The modern-looking interface makes working with the application a breeze.

In fact, it is up and running as soon as you double-click on the main executable in the decompressed archive file. Runs a network scan to detect available hosts In other words, you practically broadcast a message throughout the network and the computers that are priorly configured to respond should do so. The wake-on-LAN packet that this application can generate can be sent over the network to start the target workstations. On the other end, the target computers must be configured to respond when receiving such a message. Like any other application of its kind, Wake on LAN enables you to remotely control the power state of computers in your network by sending a special message.
