Hi

Im running Proxmox 2.6 and trying to set up Wake on LAN. I've looked up a number of forum posts and am sure Im doing something small wrong, as its not quite working still.

I enabled Wake on LAN in the BIOS settings and ethtool seems to show WOL to be enabled (Wake-on: g - below). I noted that, under ifconfig, the IP address is assigned on vmbr0, while ethtool seems to have WOL enabled on on eth0. I've tried a WOL app but it doesnt turn on the server.

I believe the Magic Packet is a UDP packet, over port 7 or 9, so when I scan the server when running, I get the results below.

Has this been set up right? Is there anything else I need to do to configure it for WOL?

Hi,
did you enable it on the Mainboard?
your version is very old.
current version is 3.4
 
Hi

2.6 is actually the kernel version (from uname -a). My mistake, am running Proxmox version 3.4 (downloaded last month).

Wake on LAN is enabled in the BIOS.

Does the listening port need to be configured on server, as iOS apps & Depicus Windows client ask which port you want to send magic packet to?
