 +====== 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.
  
-==== Related links ==== +==== Which Shuttle models support WOL? ==== 
-{{backlinks>.}}+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" 
 +  - Please deativate the EuP function.(1) 
 +  - Now activate Wake Up by LAN (2) 
 +  - To save, please press ''F4'' on your keyboard. 
 +   
 +{{:faq:hardware:network:wol_bios.jpg?nolink&400|}} 
 + 
 +==== 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.  
 + 
 +To activate WOL for Magic Packet, please start **Intel(R) PROSet Adapter Configuration Utility**. 
 +Navigate to "Adapter Settings" -"**Wake on Magic Packet from power off**" and change the current value to **Enable** (Default Value: Disable) 
 + 
 +{{:faq:hardware:network:intel_wol2020.jpg?nolink&800|}} 
 + 
 +:!: The configuration menu and settings may vary depending on NIC vendor. 
 + 
 +==== 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'' 
 +</WRAP> 
 + 
 +=== 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. 
 +

 + 
 +{{:faq:hardware:network:wol2_tool.png?nolink&400|}} 
 + 
 +==== How do I wake up a Shuttle XPC under Linux? ==== 
 +Firstly, please bootup the Shuttle XPC and active WOL in BIOS. 
 + 
 +WOL must also be activated under Debian/Ubuntu. 
 + 
 +Please use the following command: ''ethtool -s eth0 wol g'' 
 + 
 +The etherwake command can be used to send a Wake-On-LAN "Magic Packet" under Linux operating systems. 
 + 
 +Please enter the following command to install etherwake under Debian/Ubuntu Linux desktop: ''$ sudo aptitude install etherwake'' 
 + 
 +<WRAP center round important 30%> 
 +Note: Red Hat Linux users should use the ''net-tools'' package which is installed by default. 
 +</WRAP> 
 + 
 +To initiate the wake up process, please type the following command using the appropriate MAC-Address: ''# wakeonlan MAC-Address-Here''
