`-h HOST'
`--host=HOST'
`-i HOST'
`--ipaddr=HOST'
Broadcast packet to this IP address or hostname. This is important
if your wol client is a multihomed host and you want to send only
to one subnet (default IP address is `255.255.255.255').
`-p NUM'
`--port=NUM'
Send packet with this destination port NUM. This option is
important if your packet filter would block the default
destination port `40000'.
`-f FILE'
`--file=FILE'
Read hardware addresses, IP addresses/hostnames, optional ports
and SecureON password from file `FILE'. If `FILE' is - `wol' reads
from stdin.
`-'
Read hardware addresses, IP addresses, optional ports and optional
SecureON password from stdin. So you can extract MAC-ADDRESSES
from any source and pipe the data into `wol' so.
`-v'
`--verbose'
Turns on verbose output.
`-w NUM'
`--wait=NUM'
Waits NUM milliseconds between Magic Packets. Also known as fuse
health pack.
`--passwd[=PASS]'
Send a magic packet with SecureON password feature. PASS is
written as x-x-x-x-x-x, where x is a hexadecimal number between 0
and ff which represents one byte of the password.
If you don't provide PASS `wol' prompts you for a password.
To set the password of your SecureON capable NIC, you can use
`ethtool' (<http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/gkernel/>).
