Need to update all of the PCs on your network with the latest drivers or software after hours without having to personally go back to your business to turn on the targeted PCs or initiate the processes.?
It is now possible to cause certain PC configurations to 'Wake Up' (power on) when they receive a special packet.
This "Magic packet" is generated using the IP, Subnet and MAC address of the remote computer. By sending this special packet to a dormant computer that remote computer can be caused to "Wake Up" (Boot itself up). This feature can be disabled in the BIOS or in the Network card settings.
The only drawback to this is that one has to know the remote computer's IP, subnet and MAC address. ComptSoft's WakeupOnLan wil provide you with the right tools for detecting the MAC and the IP address.
After the boot process completed you can detect and identify open ports, trace the route to the machine, etc. You will also be able to manupulate a remote machine's print queue, services, processes, shares, etc.
