Wake on LAN

Sub-menu: /tool/wol

Wake on LAN (WoL) is a network feature that sends a UDP Magic Packet to the broadcast address. This packet contains the MAC address of the target device. If the target device supports Wake on LAN (meaning it has the required hardware and software configuration), it will power on from a sleep or shutdown state. Note that secure WoL is currently not supported.

Property Description

interface (string; Default: )Interface through which the Magic Packet will be sent

Wake-on-LAN Command

The /tool/wol command requires a MAC address parameter and an interface to function properly.

warning

If no interface is specified, the Magic Packet is sent as an IP broadcast from the default gateway interface.
