Wake Up Support is a small Windows app for powering on systems on your local network. It sends Wake-on-LAN magic packets to ordinary computers, and uses IPMI to power AJA Bridge Live devices on and off, since those do not support Wake-on-LAN.

Add your first system

  1. Enable the target hardware first: Wake-on-LAN on Dell systems or IPMI on an AJA Bridge Live.
  2. Click WOL to add a Wake-on-LAN system, or ABL to add an AJA Bridge Live.
  3. Click On on the system's row to power it on. AJA devices also have an Off button, which asks for confirmation first.

For a Wake-on-LAN system you enter a name, the MAC address, an optional IP address, the subnet's directed broadcast address (for example 192.168.154.255) and the port. Port 9 is the usual default.

Other features

  • Status dots next to each address show whether the system is reachable (green), not reachable (red) or unknown (grey). A warning icon appears when an IP address and MAC address do not match what the network reports.
  • Scan lists the devices found on the local subnet and lets you add them as systems.
  • Wake log records the recent wake and power actions made from this computer.
  • Reorder the rows by dragging the handle at the start of a row.
  • Import and export the list of systems as a JSON file to move it to another computer.
