Enabling Wake-On-LAN in a Citrix deployed BES Console

(imported topic written by curth)

I have read the information (http://support.bigfix.com/bes/misc/bes-wol.html) on enabling Wake-On-LAN and have successfully performed this for one user (me). I am now trying to deploy this out for many users (200+). All of my users run the BigFix Console from Citrix Servers via a published application. Does each user have to upload the "bes-wol.besrp " into their console to make the Wake On LAN property available to them? Is there a way to globally enable this for all users?

Hey Curt,

The right-click WoL customization is the old-method of WoL… The new method is integrated into the console and enabled from the dashboard… Do you have 7.1 installed?

Ben - Is this only available in the BES Power Management site or can I enable it on my instance without subscribing to that site? I assume that site is not free.

Hey Curt,

Power Management is a separate site… It can be bundled with some of our offerings or it is available individually…

You need the power management site to enable WoL and to manage your WoL options (like WoL forwarding, last men standing, etc.)
