Patent ID: 8874890

Claim:
A server, comprising: first and second resistors; a plurality of first network cards, wherein each of the first network cards has a remote wake-up function and a remote reboot function, and comprises a first signal pin to transmit a wake-up signal and a restart signal, each of the first signal pins is connected to a power supply through the first resistor; a plurality of second network cards, wherein each of the second network cards has a remote wake-up function, and comprises a second signal pin to transmit a wake-up signal, each of the second signal pins is connected to the power supply through the second resistor; a buffer comprising an input terminal connected to each of the first signal pins to receive the restart signal, and an output terminal to output the restart signal; a restart circuit connected to the output terminal of the buffer to receive the restart signal, wherein the restart circuit reboots the server according to the restart signal; an AND gate comprising a first input terminal connected to each of the first signal pins to receive the wake-up signal from the first network cards, a second input terminal connected to each of the second signal pins to receive the wake-up signal from the second network cards, and an output terminal to output the wake-up signal; and a south bridge comprising a third signal pin connected to the output terminal of the AND gate to receive the wake-up signal, wherein the south bridge wakes up the server according to the wake-up signal.
