Summary

Wake on LAN (WOL) is feature that can "wake up" compliant computers from sleep mode by sending a "magic packet" to the network interface adapter. This chapter is an overview of the Wake on LAN page in RUTX10 devices.


If you're having trouble finding this page or some of the parameters described here on your device's WebUI, you should turn on "Advanced WebUI" mode. You can do that by clicking the "Advanced" button, located at the top of the WebUI.

Wake on LAN configuration

You can set up the WOL function to use a broadcast address when waking up devices or wake all connected devices on click from the Wake on LAN configuration section:

Field Value Description
Broadcast off | on; default: off If checked, the WOL function sends a magic packet to the broadcast address (FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF) whenever it is asked to wake a device. When you send a packet to the broadcast address it is received by all LAN devices.
Interface network interface(s); default: br-lan Network interface of the target network.
Wake all devices - (interactive button) Wakes all devices by sending a magic packet to the broadcast address (FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF).

Wake on LAN devices

The Wake on LAN devices section is used to configure entries for LAN devices that can later be woken up by the WOL function. Refer to the figure bellow for information on the fields contained in the Wake on LAN devices section.
