Wake-On-LAN
If disabled then the system will not respond to magic packets or other means of wake-on-LAN. The NIC chip
section that looks for packets will not be powered.
If all-in-card then any NIC plugged into an expansion slot will be enabled for Wake-on-LAN. There's only one
small white NIC power connector per riser, so if the user has two or more add-in NICs, whichever one is
plugged into the special power connector is the source of any Wake-on-LAN signal.
If on board then the on-board NIC is enabled for Wake-on-LAN.
Possible values are:
1 - Disable
2 - Add-in-card

4 - Enable all
Wake-On-LAN Boot Override
If enabled then when the system powers on due to a Wake-on-LAN event, the NIC boot-ROM is automatically
given the highest boot priority, pre-pending the PXE boot-ROM to the system’s current boot sequence. If the
system powers on due to some other event, this selection does not influence the boot sequence. If disabled
then the boot override feature is disabled and the system boot sequence is in effect for all types of system
power on.
