Wake on LAN

Turn on the WOL function

** Default Wake On LAN (WOL) Functionality Enabled in the BIOS **

• Power on the system and press the DEL key to access the BIOS settings.
• Navigate to Chipset --> South Cluster Configuration --> Miscellaneous Configuration.
• Verify that the Wake On LAN option is in the "enabled" state.

WOL Functionality Usage

** Using Windows System as an Example **

Enabling WOL Function

• Access the Windows system and open the Device Manager.
• Locate the network card device, Realtek PCIe Gbe Family Controller.
• Open the properties and navigate to the Power Management page.
• Check the option "Allow this device to wake the computer."

Recording Network Card MAC Address

• Connect Radxa X2L to the local network using an Ethernet cable.
• Open Windows Settings and select Network & Internet.
• Access the Properties interface, and at the bottom, locate the Physical Address (MAC).
• Take note of the network card's MAC address (e.g., 00-E0-4C-06-00-2E) while maintaining the network connection.
• Power off Radxa X2L; note that Radxa X2L's power should remain connected in this step.

LAN Wake-Up

** Using Wake On LAN Software for Wake-Up**

• Employ any other terminal device (Windows PC) within the same local network to send a network wake-up magic packet (multiple methods available; using Microsoft's WOL software as an example).
• Install the Wake On LAN software.
• Open the Wake On LAN software, input any Device Name for identification (for convenience), enter the previously recorded MAC address of Radxa X2L's network card, and click "Wake."
• At this point, Radxa X2L will be awakened from a powered-off state.
