OneSite Wake is comprised of several technologies to effectively power on your devices to continuously deliver software and patches. This ensures devices are up-to-date or can be accessed remotely even when powered off.

  • Wake-On LAN - Remotely power on endpoints or wake them up from sleep mode from within your enterprise network.

    • Devices hardwired to the enterprise network can wake and receive software and patches during maintenance windows outside of business hours.

  • Wake-On Schedule - Set a desired schedule to ensure the availability of certain endpoints or groups of endpoints.

  • Web Wake-Up - Allow users to manually wake up devices via an online portal.

    • Users are authenticated and can wake up authorized devices.
