    Hi,

    I am currently trying to deploy applications and software updates from SCCM 2012 R2 using WOL. However I would like to deploy to clients that are on different subnets. If there a way to do this without turning on broadcasting? I have one Site Server. I am able to successfully deploy to a client on the same subnet as the server.

    Thank You.

    First, I assume that you mean subnet-directed broadcast and not "broadcasting" -- they really are two different things.

    Next, you can use unicast. This documentation is from ConfigMgr 2007 but still applicable: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb693568.aspx

    Subnet-Directed Broadcast is what I meant. I should have clarified a little bit more. Thank you for pointing that out. I am going to check into the link that you provided.

    Hi,
    As Jason wrote yes you can use Unicast not you will see less success in clients beeing started if you don't tweak the ARP Cache in routers/switches.  Here is a great post on WoL.  www.aitltd.com/2017/03/17/wake-on-lan-in-SCCM/
