Configuring the out of band service point properties in Configuration Manager 2007 SP1 and later allows you to fine-tune how power on transmissions are sent to computers when you are using power on commands to wake up computers for scheduled activities, such as software updates with a deadline. These options help you to control the CPU utilization of the out of band service point when multiple computers are targeted for power on commands.
