Software update with Wake on Lan

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

i got a situation with a star network, in the star netwerk there is a SCCM main site server on IP network 10.10.10.0/

Then i got on al locations different Distribution points that have the Software update content, the distribution points got different IP : 192.168.xxx.xxx

 

Now i created 1 update package with al the updates for windows 7, this package is distributed and Deployed on the distribution points and asset aplience.

In the package i Enabled WOL function, also i enable the WOL function on the main Site.

 

Now i got the problem the computers wont start up, ive i test from the distribution point with a CMD and mac adres the computer start up, this indicate that the WOL function of the computer is working and turned on.

 

ive i try to wake up from SCCM server with the mac adress it fails. i am not sure ive that is the right way to check ive WOL is working from a different location.

 

How do i configure WOL and Software Updates to work over different Networks in 1 Main site Hirachie.

and how can i troubleshoot where a problem could be for not working of this function.

First problem found :

My DNS refresh time was to long, the DNS record didn't show the latest IP-Addres, so a WOL unicast didnt reached the right computer.

 

Second test fase : I have putted the updates in a Task sequence, after the task sequence finished i will test the WOL function that is coming from the SCCM Site Controller
