摘要：
In one embodiment, a Wake-On-LAN (WOL) signal is sent to power-up and boot the workstation when the employees badge into the site in order to save time for the employees. The workstation boots up into the operating system as the employees arrive at the office area. Upon badging into their office area or building, a database matches the badge number with the MAC address of their corresponding workstations. Then a WOL signal with that MAC address is sent to power-up the particular workstations. In an embodiment, upon badging out, the same procedure is triggered to shutdown the machine or performs any other tasks based on a predetermined configuration. If two or more employees use the same computer, the computer is turned on when either employee badges into the site. This embodiment groups the employees in a group entity and keeps track of the individuals within the group.
