quickwhips Posted September 28, 2012 Report post Posted September 28, 2012 I've followed all the guides so far and they have been great. I'm trying to find a way to enable wake on lan for my network. I just a little confused on the subject of do I need to enable OUT of Band to use Wake on Lan with SCCM 2012 or is it possible to do this without PKI certifcates. Also if it is possible in 2012 to do this without Out of Band is there a guide for this? Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket Man Posted September 28, 2012 Report post Posted September 28, 2012 Out of band supports only proV NICs...so not unless your computer suites are prov enabled then not much point enabling this role. You can still use WOL though without OOB Rocket Man Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickwhips Posted September 28, 2012 Report post Posted September 28, 2012 So what do I need to do to enable WOL and can i setup schedules for this to wake up certain collections. It seems everything I find points to me having to use OOB and I didn't think that was case! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickwhips Posted September 28, 2012 Report post Posted September 28, 2012 Ok I think I figured it out. I went into the properties of the site and enabled wake on lan in the wake on lan tab. I set it to use wake up packets only and used subnet-directed broadcast. I then went to my collection and went to properties for that. I then wen tot power management and set wakeup time (desktop computers) to a time. Is that really all that I need to do? Thanks for all the help so far.

Rocket Man Posted September 28, 2012 Report post Posted September 28, 2012 No....The wake up time in power management will only wake up machines if they are asleep or hibernating...it does not cold start them like WOL can do You have enabled your SCCM site for WOL. You can now deploy on a schedule if needs be OSD or software and set the WOL configuration when setting up the deployments to send a wake up packet first to the target machines to wake them up and recieve the deployments.
