Hi,
We have 30x dell laptops installed in a Dell laptop trolley. It has a switch integrated into the trolley for remote management. However when the laptops are being used by the users it is obviously being used on the WiFi. Since it is then on the WiFi it gets a WiFi IP Address on a differnet subnet to the wired one. Now when the laptops are returned to the trolley at the end of the day they become wired on the network. When I send a wake up packet for remote management it doesn't work. This is due to the DNS entry still pointing to the WiFi address. Does anyone know how you can wake on lan in the given situation outlined above??????
(Please note that if I use the laptop wired and shut it down it WILL wake on lan as DNS has now got the wired address)
Many thanks.
