Wake-On-Lan CLI implementation
Closed, ResolvedPublicFEATURE REQUEST
Actions

Description

  • Replace the installed wakeonlan package with https://packages.debian.org/buster/etherwake as it supports specifying an interface where to send the magic packet to rather then an IP address.
  • Write op-mode command which has multiple <path>interfaces (ethernet|bond|...)</path> completion helper lines so we can TAB-complete the interface we want to send out the WOL packet

Suggestion:

  • new exec tree in main op-mode tree
  • or: wol top level command like we have for ping/traceroute
