Waking Up Computers

The method you choose to wake computers from the server depends on the context. For example, if you want to set up a patch management schedule, you might want to wake computers once per week at a specific time of day and for a specific length of time. Or if you want to wake computers on demand, you might use a Wake on LAN magic packet.

The topics in this section describes the methods through which you can wake computers, with guidelines on what methods to use, and when.
