Wake Up Capabilities

The Wake Up Capabilities property enables the network adapter to wake
up from a low-power mode when it receives a network wake-up frame.
There are two types of wake-up frames: Magic Packet and Wake Up
Frame. The default setting is Both - which implements both the Magic
Packet and Wake Up Frame.

The Wake on LAN (WOL) feature applies to the copper port NIC cards:

AT-2912T

AT-2972T/4

WOL is not supported on fiber NIC cards due to power limitations of the
PCI bus. The Gigabit fiber cards in this category are:

AT-2916SX

AT-2916LX10/LC

AT-2931SX,AT-2972SX

AT-2972LX10/LC
