Actually there are two ways of doing this. One is to use a Wake-On-Lan
Magic Packet(tm), which I have never tested, but I believe should be
taken care of by the systems BIOS. Technically it is possible to have
the device driver set the ACPI state level the machine should be woken
up from, but I haven't investigated if it works. You probably need to
have ACPI enabled for this to work.
These is another feature the hardware appears to support that is
generally called OnNow (wake on packet), which allows you to wake the
machine from any arbitrary packet based on a 128byte mask. However up
until now nobody has expressed any interest in either feature.
How do you plan to use such a feature?
Do any other device drivers support it yet?

Thank you.
This driver Although it seems that it does not correspond to
WakeUpOnLAN, does it support from now on?
