Two years late response but another excellent product to consider is Faronics Core. On it's own, it is free and offers WOL relaying. But the real power is its add-ons called Loadins such as Power Save (for advanced power management and analysis), Deep Freeze and Anti-Executable (for security), etc.

We are looking for a way to combine a patch management solution with a Wake On LAN implementation for our mixed environment of 200+ corporate LAN PCs and 500+ &quot;far-flung&quot; PCs at different internet-enabled locations. &nbsp;There is no IPsec or VPN connectivity between the home network and/or the remotes.<br />
<br />
BigFix claims they can do this with &quot;relay agents&quot; handling sending out the magic packet to the other PCs on their subnets. &nbsp;LANDesk claims this is impossible.<br />
<br />
Is anyone doing something like this? &nbsp;If so, what solution are you using?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance.<br />

Any way to use Wake On LAN across disparate networks using management software?

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

Operating system security (OS security) is the process of ensuring OS integrity, confidentiality and availability. OS security refers to specified steps or measures used to protect the OS from threats, viruses, worms, malware or remote hacker intrusions. OS security encompasses all preventive-control techniques, which safeguard any computer assets capable of being stolen, edited or deleted if OS security is compromised, including authentication, passwords and threats to systems and programs.
