[debian-edu-commits] debian-edu/ 56/64: The -i <host-ip> option in the wakeonlan executable is only useful on networks with static ARP tables available. For networks using dynamic ARP tables (common with most switches), a broadcast address instead of a host IP should be given here. The wakeonlan default (255.255.255.255) is just fine for most network setups. So we omit the -i <host-ip> option completely when calling wakeonlan in the wakeupclients script.

    on networks with static ARP tables available. For networks using
    dynamic ARP tables (common with most switches), a broadcast address
    instead of a host IP should be given here. The wakeonlan default
    (255.255.255.255) is just fine for most network setups. So we omit
    the -i <host-ip> option completely when calling wakeonlan in the
