How do I use Hyena to wake on LAN my PCs

Re: Wake on LAN

You'll need to create a file with the MAC addresses of your computers. There's some information in the help file on this. Enter in that path to that file under Tools->Settings->WOL. Then you'll simply right-click on a computer, or selection of computers and choose Send Wakeup Request.

I too am working with the WOL and am having issues. I have no problems running other WOL programs such as SolarWinds, etc (even across subnets). However, I cannot get Hyena to work. I am not receiving any config errors and have tried many combinations of WOL settings to no avail. Would like to know how Hyena generates it's WOL commands.

Re: Wake on LAN

Hyena's help file has information on how it uses WOL.

Agreed, but it's very limited. Can you offer other resources?

Re: Wake on LAN

What information are you looking for ? Hyena sends a magic packet command as documented by AMD.

Thanks for your inputs. I traced it to network switch setups. I think it would be a nice idea to include a statement in the manual under the checklist items to note switch configuration requirements.

Re: Wake on LAN

I'd be happy to. Let me know what sort of requirements there are.

Thanks

How can I use Hyena to schedule a WOL?

Re: Wake on LAN

Hyena's functions can't be scheduled. If you can find a command line utility or something to run WOL, you can use Hyena to create a job to run it.
