Trying to schedule a WOL using the scheduler so it turns my backup server on at 3am, and then the backups are scheduled to start at 3:15 and run until around 6am (depending on the amount of data put on them during the day). The server has an auto-script to turn off around 7am.
The WOL function on my CRS125 does not send a magic packet though. I have a packet sniffer on the server, and it will work if I use a “magic packet” desktop app, but the CRS does not send one, either by script or by schedule. The server is plugged directly into port 21 on the router.
I have tried the following scripts (copied/pasted directly from the “Source” box except for I removed my real MAC address):
tool wol mac=AA:BB:DD:EE:EE:EE
tool wol interface=ether21-slave-local mac=AA:BB:DD:EE:EE:EE
Neither of those send a magic packet to UDP port 7 (per my packet sniffer). Even using the terminal a packet is not sent, and that one is very simple as you run the WOL tool, then type in the MAC.
Do I have the script wrong? Is it just broken?
Thanks!
