1. A virtualized desktop system comprising:
- a network;
a target device connected to said network via a network interface;
an interfacing module coupled to a peripheral port of said target device and to said network;
a digital user station, connected to said network, configured to be coupled to peripherals corresponding to peripheral ports of said target device thereby accessing and controlling the operation of the target device via said network using interfacing module coupled to the target device, wherein the digital user station controls a power operation of the interfacing module by controlling a power cycling operation of the target device via said network.

Abstract
In a virtualized desktop system, a digital user station communicates with an interfacing module coupled to a target device via a network. The digital user station controls the power of the target device and the interfacing module by determining the power status of the interfacing module and sending a power control packet to the target device the interfacing module is coupled to.

3. In a virtualized desktop system where a digital user station communicates with an interfacing module coupled to a target device via a network, a method for controlling a power operation of the interfacing module comprising the steps of:
at the digital user station;
determining power status of the interfacing module;
sending a power control packet to the target device the interfacing module is coupled to, where the power control packet changes power state of the target device which thereby changes the power state of the interfacing module. - View Dependent Claims (4)

5. In a virtualized desktop system where a digital user station communicates with an interfacing module coupled to a target device via a network, a method for controlling a power state of the target device comprising the steps of:
at the digital user station;
determining the power status of the interfacing module;
determining the power status of the target device based at least in part on the power status of the interfacing module;
sending a power control packet to the target device the interfacing module is coupled to, where the power control packet changes the power state of the target device. - View Dependent Claims (6)
