• Shutdown. This sleep state removes all power from the system except
a small auxiliary amount. As long as the computer remains connected
to an electrical outlet, it can be automatically or remotely started. For
example, the Auto Power On feature allows the computer to
automatically start at a time you specify in system setup. Also, your
network administrator can remotely start your computer using a power
management event (PME) such as access through a network
connection (Wakeup On LAN).
The following table lists the sleep states available for each operating system
as well as the methods you can use to "wake up" from each state.
NOTE: For more information on power management, see your operating
system documentation.
