Configuring Wake-on-LAN on IGEL OS Devices

With Wake-on-Lan (WoL), you can switch on devices over the network. On this configuration page, you can select the packets or messages with which the endpoint device can be started.

For further information on the WoL functionality of the Universal Management Suite (UMS), see Wake-on-LAN.

On Lenovo devices that are supported by IGEL OS 11, the system can detect whether WoL is enabled in the BIOS or not. If the system detects that WoL is disabled in the BIOS, all WoL described on this configuration page is disabled.

You can enable or disable the WoL detection with System > Registry > network > interfaces > respect_bios_wol_setting (registry key network.interfaces.respect_bios_wol_setting).
