Abstract:
Secure, continuous, on-demand access to services provided by servers internal to a network is facilitated, while minimizing power consumption and power load spikes. Information concerning operation of the network is monitored, and a profile of the network is maintained. Internal network servers being in reduced power consumption states is tracked. Service requests from clients to internal network servers that are in reduced power consumption states are detected. In response, packets are generated to wake servers in reduced power consumption states, without requiring registration or installation of any components on the servers or clients. Frequencies are controlled at which packets are generated to wake servers, thereby minimizing sudden increases in power consumption associated with waking multiple servers. This can comprise waiting for a specific duration of time prior to generating packets, based on server profiles.
