Introduction

This paper provides step‐by‐step instructions for using Wake‐On‐LAN (WOL)

with Dell™ Servers.

Wake‐On‐LAN allows a server to be remotely powered on. Wake‐On‐LAN

technology resides in a server's managed network interface card (NIC) and/or in

a LAN‐on‐motherboard (LOM) integrated network connection.

When a WOL enabled system is placed in a power saving mode (hibernate,

standby, power off, etc...), the managed NIC or LOM uses the auxiliary power

source to monitor the network and receive a wake‐up packet. When a wake‐up

packet is received, the system powers up as normal.

The following tools are necessary to have on hand before using wake‐on‐LAN on

a Dell server:

1. DOS bootable floppy disk, MS DOS version 6.0 or newer, FreeDOS or

DRDOS (APM WOL only.)

2. IBAUTIL.EXE version 4.02.02.01 or newer for Intel network interface cards

(NICs) or Intel‐based LANs on Motherboard (LOMs).

3. B57UTIL.EXE version 10.11 or newer or B57UDIAG.EXE version 6.04 or

newer for Broadcom NICs or Broadcom‐based LOMs.

4. UXdiag.exe version 1.3.1 or newer for Broadcom NetXtreme II NICs or

LOMs.

5. Ethtool 1.8.4 or better for Linux WOL (Dell Servers support Red Hat

Enterprise Linux® and SUSE® Enterprise distributions of Linux.)

6. The latest BIOS for each system to use WOL.
