In my experience, there is often more than using ethtool to achieve wol,
but you may be lucky. Here is my /etc/network/interfaces file, which
never fails me:
Code:
--------------------
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.50
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
network 192.168.1.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
post-up /etc/network/enable_wol g
--------------------
I am using a static conf but this surely works with DHCP as well. The
/etc/network/enable_wol is a snippet I added to the system:
Code:
--------------------
#!/bin/sh
if [ ! -x /usr/sbin/ethtool ]; then
exit 0
fi
if [ "$METHOD" = loopback ]; then
exit 0
fi
# wol pg => wake on any physical activity
# wol g => wake on magic packets only
# wol d => disable wol
if [ "$1" ]; then
VAL=$1
MSG="cannot set WOL on $IFACE: unsupported code"
case "$VAL" in
"pg" ) MSG="Enabling $IFACE WOL on PHY+Magic Packets"
/usr/sbin/ethtool -s $IFACE wol $VAL
;;
"p" ) MSG="Enabling $IFACE WOL on PHY"
/usr/sbin/ethtool -s $IFACE wol $VAL
;;
"g" ) MSG="Enabling $IFACE WOL on Magic Packets"
/usr/sbin/ethtool -s $IFACE wol $VAL
;;
"d" ) MSG="Disabling $IFACE WOL"
/usr/sbin/ethtool -s $IFACE wol $VAL
;;
esac
/usr/bin/logger "[$0] $MSG ($VAL)"
fi
exit
