Send a wake up signal to the MAC address of the WOL enabled NIC, and the system will boot. Note: If the system boot is interrupted before the OS and the NIC driver are loaded, the system will not be able to perform WOL again until the system is rebooted manually and the OS and driver are allowed to load and reset the NIC's WOL registers. ©Copyright 2003‐2008 Dell Computer Corporation.
