Input/Output Interfaces
✎
For the features in the following paragraphs to function as described, the system unit must be
plugged into a live AC outlet. Controlling unit power through a switchable power strip will, with
the strip turned off, disable any wake, alert, or power mangement functionality.
5.8.1 Wake-On-LAN Support
The NIC supports the Wired-for-Management (WfM) standard of Wake-On-LAN (WOL) that
allows the system to be booted up from a powered-down or low-power condition upon the
detection of special packets received over a network. The detection of a Magic Packet by the NIC
results in the PME- signal on the PCI bus to be asserted, initiating system wake-up from an ACPI
S1 or S3 state.
5.8.2 Alert Standard Format Support
Alert Standard Format (ASF) support allows the NIC to communicate the occurrence of certain
events over a network to an ASF 1.0-compliant management console and, if necessary, take
action that may be required. The ASF communications can involve the following:
■ Alert messages sent by the client to the management console.
■ Maintenance requests sent by the management console to the client.
■ Description of client's ASF capabilities and characteristics.
The activation of ASF functionality requires minimal intervention of the user and requires only
booting a client system connected to a network with an ASF-compliant management console.
5.8.3 Power Management Support
The NIC features Wired-for-Management (WfM) support providing system wake up from
network events (WOL) as well as generating system status messages (AOL) and supports ACPI
power management environments. The controller receives 3.3 VDC (auxiliary) power as long as
the system is plugged into a live AC receptacle, allowing support of wake-up events occurring
over a network while the system is powered down or in a low-power state.
The Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) functionality of system wake up is
implemented through an ACPI-compliant OS and is the default power management mode. The
following wakeup events may be individually enabled/disabled through the supplied software
driver:
■ Magic Packet—Packet with node address repeated 16 times in data portion
✎
The following functions are supported in NDIS5 drivers but implemented through remote
management software applications (such as LanDesk).
■ Individual address match—Packet with matching user-defined byte mask
■ Multicast address match—Packet with matching user-defined sample frame
■ ARP (address resolution protocol) packet
■ Flexible packet filtering—Packets that match defined CRC signature
The PROSet Application software (pre-installed and accessed through the System Tray or
Windows Control Panel) allows configuration of operational parameters such as WOL and
duplex mode.
