Student power on

The NetSupport School Tutor can power on Student machines at the start of a session. This feature works by sending a Wake-on-LAN packet to the Student network adapter, which instructs the machine to power on. For this to function, the Student must be known to the Tutor and comply with the following:

The option "Wake for network access" will need to be enabled in System Preferences > Energy Saver, and power on will only function when a Mac is in sleep state as when fully powered off the network adapter is disabled.  

Note: Known Students are Students that have been previously connected to.

To power on a NetSupport School Student

  1. Select the icon(s) of the Students you wish to power on.

  2. Choose {Student}{Power Management - Power On} from the Tutor Console drop-down menu.

    Or

    Click the Manage icon on the Tutor toolbar and choose Power On.

  3. The Student machines will now power on.
