More information about that process is available on the Nirsoft website and the manufacturer manuals (Bios, network adapter).
On some computers, Wake on Lan needs to be first enabled in the computer bios before it can be activated in the network card properties. It also needs to be noted that this works only on wired networks and not wireless networks. The remote computers need to support the Wake On Lan feature. WakeMeOnLan can be run on all 32-bit and 64-bit editions of the Windows operating system, from Windows 2000 all the way to the latest client and server versions of Windows (at the time of writing Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2). The saved list can then later be used to select computers that are either turned off or in standby to turn them on again. The computers are also displayed in the application interface, along with their local IP address, computer name if set, MAC address, network adapter information and status. The portable program identifies all connected devices, collects their network addresses and saves the information to a file. When you first start the WakeMeOnLan tool it scans the computer network automatically. WakeMeOnLan also allows you to turn on a computer from the command-line by specifying the computer name, IP address, or the remote network card's MAC address.Nir Sofer has just released a new tool to assist network and system administrators in those tasks. Later, when your computers are turned off or in standby mode, you can use the stored computer list to quickly choose the computer you want to turn on and then turn on all these computers with a single click.
When your computers are turned on, WakeMeOnLan allows you to scan your network, and collect the MAC addresses of all your computers, and save the computers' list into a file. WakeMeOnLan allows you to easily turn on one or more computers remotely by sending Wake-on-LAN (WOL) packet to the remote computers.
