Proxmox newbie here. I completed the Proxmox configuration steps and made sure that my network device supports WoL but I have been unsuccessful on getting Wake-On-Lan work appropriately for my Proxmox host.

Physical machine: HP EliteDesk 800 G2 SFF. System Bios N01 Ver.02.51 10/19/2020
  • I can boot the Proxmox host using the physical power on button without issues
  • I am able to "wake" the machine from a shut-down state successfully (wakeonlan [mac:addr]), however with the following errors:
    • At first I believe that the machine tried to boot via network:
      • It provided an error PXE-E53: No boot filename received.
      • Then PXE-M0F: Exiting intel Boot Agent.
      • Finally stated "BootDevice Not Found" & "Please install an operating system on your hard disk."
    • After I disabled network boot I got a different error:
      • "Start PXE over IPv4"
        • I looked up the error and it looks like the machine is still trying to boot over network somehow

Has anyone seen this? I am starting to wonder if the regular wake on lan even works which directly boots to the existing operating system..
