Ivanti Wake on LAN Scheduling Methods

When using Ivanti Wake on LAN, you can send endpoint wake requests using different scheduling methods: hours of operation (HOP), custom daily wake times, and wake now.
Ivanti Wake on LAN includes the following methods to schedule wake requests:

  • Wake during Hours of Operation
    This method schedules wake requests based on endpoint HOP settings, which are defined in agent policy set(s). HOP settings define the days and times an endpoint's agent is operational. Within Ivanti Endpoint Security, you can create many agent policy sets.
    Therefore, the agent policy set applied to a given group governs its agents' behavior. When multiple agent policy sets are applied to a group, HOP are an accumulation of all applicable agent policy sets' defined HOP. Refer to the Agent Policy Sets Page in the Endpoint Security Help for additional information.
    Wake during Hours of Operation wake request are only available in Ivanti Endpoint Security environments with the Patch and Remediation module installed.

    Agent hours of operation are based on the host endpoint's local time.

  • Group Wakeup Times
    This method schedules wake requests based on a time you assign to an endpoint group. Wake requests are sent based on the server local time.

  • Wake Now
    This method schedules a wake request for a selected endpoint immediately.

You can use multiple schedule methods to wake endpoints. Methods can operate in conjunction without conflict because Ivanti Wake on LAN uses the combined information from HOP and group wakeup times.
