Abstract:
A method for managing a power state for a peripheral includes listening for activity packets communicated from one or more of a plurality of clients configured to utilize the peripheral. Activity packets received during a selected period are examined.

A power state is selected according to the examination of the activity packets received during the selected period and the peripheral is caused to enter the selected power state.
