The Setup program allows users to modify the basic system configuration and save these settings to CMOS RAM. T he power of CMOS RAM is supplied by a battery so that it retains the Setup information when the power is turned off. Basic Input-Output System (BIOS) determines what a computer can do without accessing programs from a disk. [. . . ] To run in headless mode, both BIOS and operating system (e. g. Windows Server 2003) must support headless operation. Options: Disabled (Default) / Enabled WOL From Soft-Off T his item allows you control the wake on LAN (WOL) function.
