Turn Computer on Using Wake-on-LAN

As of RMM Agent 1.6, you can turn on a managed computer or wake it up from sleep mode, hibernation, or shutdown by means of a different computer on the same network. Wake-on-LAN requires at least one online computer on the same subnet, and Wake-on-LAN must be enabled on the computer you want to wake up.

To wake up the selected computer:

1. Open the Management Console.
2. Open the RMM > Computers page in the main menu.
3. In the computer list, find the computer you want to turn on, then click the diagram icon in the RMM column.
4. On the General tab, click Wake-on-LAN.

5. You will be prompted to check whether Wake-on-LAN is enabled in the BIOS and in the Networks Adapter section of Device Manager on the remote computer. A dedicated script, Check-WakeOnLan, is added to the RMM Script Library for this purpose.

6. Click Wake-on-LAN once the feature is available.
7. If at least one computer in this subnet is online, the magic packet will be sent to wake up the computer.
