Abstract:
Wake-on-LAN (WoL) is a widely supported networking standard that allows computers to be turned on
remotely. The majority of desktop hardware is WoL capable, though many organizations still do not
employ this technology (despite its benefits in energy conservation). Limitations include specific
configuration requirements for sending the WoL packets over multiple hops, as well as security issues
that arise due to these settings. In this paper, we present a testbed that addresses these issues, and others.
Our testbed utilizes standard equipment and freely available software tools, allowing network
administrators and other interested parties to adapt the solution to their scenarios.
