Yes, the GUI interface allows power on, off, reset. You need to use them when you're installing ESXi and getting NICs configured.

Thanks alot for your helpful information.
Actually Cisco has CIMC (Cisco Integrated Management Controller ) this is the Web user interface and it has the power on button.
but our issue is the electricity is always cut continuously and sometimes we need our Cisco server to work with network start.
so is it possible in our server UCS C210 M2 to have Wake On Lan option because i cant find it anywhere .

Can you not just set the power restore policy for it to power up again when power is restored?
ASKER
Actually i didn't got your point , can you kindly describe it more?
If you had it set to start up when power was restored wouldn't suffice to get it running again after power loss?
ASKER
please could you kindly tell me how to configure it in UCS C210 M2 Cisco server this power option or any way to make our server wake when our LAN is up.
Thanks for your understanding

Oh, I think I understand, you don't want it to power on when the power comes back, you want to keep it shut down until the network is available and only then power on when you send it a magic packet.
If the workaround using the power policy is good enough for you it's at http://ccnp-v.blogspot.co.uk/2012/01/ucs-c200-series-power-on-after-power.html

Hmm, tried a different web browser?
ASKER
I had tried another browser the same result.
in my opinion it doesn't matter if you had tried any kind of browsers because the CIMC will be the same in all of them , or the option must be avalible in the bios to enable it.
but the question is ? where is this option? where i can find it?
please help me.

Surely the web user interface has an "on" button as an option? All the rest provide that, HP iLO, Dell DRAC, IBM RSA etc.
