January 30, 201214 yr I have been researching the Wake-on-lan(WOL) feature to make my server more green. I have found that some motherboards support both WOL and "wake on ping". I did some downloading of manuals for motherboards. I found that the Intel Atom D525 has "wake on ping" listed in the owners manual. The issue is that the board I had only 2 SATA ports. Does anyone know of motherboards that have Wake on Ping? Is Wake on Ping the same thing as Wake on Any? Note: my understanding is that WOL requires a client to send the server a magic packet to bring it out of sleep. Whereas a WOP or WOA would bring it back with any packet sent to the server. Am I correct? To me it seems that WOP would be a more useful.
January 30, 201214 yr Not off hand... but many also have a wake on any option. Any of the SuperMicro boards with IPMI - there is a great one with an Atom 525 (http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813182243) that works great!
