#DELL 7050 BIOS REMOTE WAKE UP SETTING HOW TO#
How to Enable or Disable BitLocker with TPM in Windows A prompt to enter the recovery key to progress is shown, and this happens on each reboot. If BitLocker is not suspended, the next time you reboot the computer it will not recognize the BitLocker key. Or redirecting to another location such as this:ĮnableWOL-2Settings.exe /l="%windir%\temp\enableWOL.txt"Īnyway, hopefully this can help out someone else.Warning: Ensure that BitLocker is suspended before flashing the BIOS on computers that have BitLocker enabled. I was able to work around this by either disabling logging by adding a "/nolog" argument to the CCTK SCE Program in SCCM:

HOWEVER, in my environment, my attempt to deploy a CCTK SCE via a SCCM 2007 software distribution failed in my lab with an exit code of 10 for all my machines for whatever reason.

This CCTK command line run on your machines would perform the required BIOS level configurations to get WOL working on these machine models.ĬCTK also has the ability to create self-contained executable files (SCE) that you can deploy to your machines without having to install CCTK on each device. Once you have CCTK up and running, the CCTK command line to perform steps 2 and 3 would look something like this:Ĭctk.exe -deepsleepctrl=disable -wakeonlan=enable Optiplex 780 models do not support the "s5only" value as far as I can tell, but the other two work. The CCTK documentation mentions that the deepsleepctrl switch supports three values: "s5only", "s4ands5", "disable". The deepsleepctrl switch also allows for changes to the "Low Power Mode" setting on the 780s, but the documentation does not explicitly state this (even though the terminology slightly changed). The settings for 2 and 3 can be done manually via the BIOS configuration, or using the "Dell Client Configuration Toolkit" (CCTK) tool.ĭell released a new version (2.2.1) of the CCTK tool on Octothat supports making changes to the applicable power control settings using the -deepsleepctrl switch.

Until all three of these were done, the machines would only wake up from Standby, not from full shutdown. Disable "Low Power Mode" (for the 780) or "Deep Sleep Mode" (for the 7) in the BIOS.

Enable WOL (also called "remote wake up") for the wired NIC in the BIOS.ģ. Enable WOL on the wired network card in the OS.Ģ. I've found there are there are three settings that need to be in place for this to function:ġ.

It might work on older/newer models, YMMV. This has been tested and works on Optiplex models: 780, 7. I did some digging and poking and eventually got it to work and I thought I would share my findings.

My co-worker asked me to try to get Wake-On-LAN from power-off state working on the Optiplex models in our lab.
