Windows 7 as Wake-on-LAN Forwarder?

Usage and Config

I just noticed that the task “Designate Wake-on-LAN Forwarders” specifically excludes Windows 7 clients. Is there a reason for this? Does Wake-on-LAN forwarding not work for Windows 7 yet?

Hey boyd,

I am pretty confident that it works, but it sounds like the power management team didn’t modify the Task yet. You should be able to modify the relevance to make it work.

Thanks Ben,

I did modify the relevance and it seems to work. I was just concerned that they wrote the relevance to intentionally exclude Win7. Hopefully it’s just because they rushed out support for Win7 :slight_smile:
