Under the Power Management client settings, select Enable for the Allow network wake-up setting. For more information about this setting, see About client settings. This setting is shared by both the new and older version of Wake on LAN.

You can wake up a single client or any sleeping clients in a collection. For devices that are already awake in the collection, no action is taken for them. Only clients that are asleep will be sent a Wake on LAN request.

For more information on how to notify a client to wake, see Client notification. To wake up a single client: Right-click on the client, go to Client Notification , then select Wake up. To wake up all sleeping clients in a collection: Right-click on the device collection, go to Client Notification , then select Wake up.

Starting in Configuration Manager version , you can allow the site to wake devices at the deadline of a deployment, using the client notification channel. Instead of the site server issuing the magic packet directly, the site uses the client notification channel to find an online machine in the last known subnet of the target device s and instructs the online client to issue the WoL packet for the target device.

Verify Allow network wake-up under the Power Management client settings is enabled. Create a deployment as Required with the Send wake-up packages option and a Deadline.

All other functionality of Wake on LAN hasn't been changed. Specify Wake on LAN settings for Configuration Manager when you want to bring computers out of a sleep state to install required software, such as software updates, applications, task sequences, and programs. You can supplement Wake on LAN by using the wake-up proxy client settings. This wake-up solution also supports ad-hoc connections, such as a remote desktop connection. Use the first procedure to configure a primary site for Wake on LAN.

Then, use the second procedure to configure the wake-up proxy client settings. This second procedure configures the default client settings for the wake-up proxy settings to apply to all computers in the hierarchy. If you want these settings to apply to only selected computers, create a custom device setting and assign it to a collection that contains the computers that you want to configure for wake-up proxy.
