To work correctly the Big Business Client needs to resume the same as it went to Sleep. This means it cannot go to Sleep on one network and wake on another. It cannot go to Sleep too long or it may be disconnected for expired security credentials or because smart network hardware cut it off.
To skip this feature, and avoid Sleeping Client on your Big Business Server, just set all client computers to not Sleep. On macOS this is done in Energy Saver by clicking Prevent Computer From Sleeping. Of course, your Big Business Server computer should be set never to Sleep so it always responsive to your Clients.
