Explanation
Wake-on-LAN (WoL) is a networking standard that allows a computer to be powered on remotely by sending a special 'magic packet' to its network interface card (NIC). During off-hours, workstations are typically powered off or in sleep mode. By enabling WoL, the administrator can remotely wake machines, push updates, and then allow them to shut back down - all without requiring anyone to be physically present. Proxy settings (B) control internet traffic routing, not power management. Remote Assistance (C) requires the machine to already be powered on and a user to accept the session. Quality of Service (D) prioritizes network traffic bandwidth and has no effect on powering on machines.
