-====== Network-related FAQs ====== 
-====== Wake-on-LAN ====== 
-==== What is WOL? ==== 
-Wake-On-LAN (WOL) is a standard procedure to wake up a computer over a network. A special broadcast frame called "Magic Packet" is sent to the network adapter that triggers the startup process. 
  
-==== Which Shuttle models support WOL? ==== 
-WOL (Wake-on-LAN) is supported by all Shuttle devices by default. 
- 
-:!: Note: This feature must be enabled in BIOS. 
- 
-==== How do I activate WOL? ==== 
-Please start your Shuttle XPC and press the ''[DEL]'' or ''[F2]'' key while booting to enter BIOS.  
- 
-  - Navigate to tab "Advanced"

-==== Which states can a Shuttle XPC be woken up from? ====  
-A Shuttle XPC supports the following states: 
-  
-  - S3 (Suspend-to-RAM – STR) 
-  - S4 (Suspend-to-Disk – STD)  
-  - S5 (Soft-Off)  
- 
-==== Which drivers must be installed? ====  
-Please use the network card driver provided by Shuttle.  
-This driver is already preset for WOL use and requires no further settings. 
- 
-If you happen to run other drivers, please go to "Device Manager -> Network Adapter -> Properties" to activate WOL for Magic Packet.

-==== How to get the MAC address of a PC ==== 
-<WRAP tip 60%> 
-MAC = (Media Access Control) address\\ Example of a MAC address:  ''00:00:00:a1:2b:cc''

-=== Windows === 
-How to find the MAC address of a network card in Windows. 
-  - Press the Windows Start key to open the Start screen. 
-  - Type ''cmd'' and press Enter to launch the command prompt. 
-  - Type ''ipconfig /all'' at the command prompt to check the network card settings. 
-  - The MAC address and IP address are listed under the appropriate adapter as Physical Address and IPv4 Address. 
-=== Linux === 
-Finding the MAC address varies across the different Linux/Unix operating systems. 
-  - In many systems, the following command will return the MAC address: ''ifconfig -a'' 
-  - From the displayed information, find the correct ethernet adapter and locate the number next to the ''HWaddr''. This is your MAC address. 
- 
-==== How do I wake up a Shuttle XPC under Windows? ==== 
-We therefore recommend the popular freeware tool "WakeonLan2" (WOL2) with support for Windows and Linux.

- 
-WOL must also be activated under Debian/Ubuntu. 
- 
-Please use the following command: ''ethtool -s eth0 wol g''
