WOL issue fog 1.2.0

[pijltje]

Thats correct… we use subnetmask 255.255.240.0
When i use wakeonlan with the mac address of one of the systems manually it will turn on (running on the same server where fog is running).
wol.php from fog also works from a browser manually

I did see this thread but we do not use vlan’s.
and wol is working with other programs (like Italc and qdp deploy)
[SIZE=2]will take a look again in this thread [/SIZE]maybe[SIZE=2] i missed something [/SIZE]

[Tom Elliott]

How can you have separated subnet’s but not separated vlans?

[pijltje]

sorry we do not have separated subnet we use a B class network.
with a subnetmask of 255.255.240.0 this will get a ip range from 192.168.48.0 to 192.168.63.255.

[Tom Elliott]

So what’s the broadcast address of the main network?

It would seem to me that this is where you need to specify the wake on lan.

I’d imagine you’d need to send WOL on the 48.255 assuming this is where your gate way resides?

[Tom Elliott]

Or is your broadcast at:
192.168.63.255?

[pijltje]

my broadcast is 192.168.63.255
and gateway 192.168.48.1

FOG version 1.2.0
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

[Tom Elliott]

You may think about updating to the lastest svn.

Install the WOLBroadcast plugin

Configure your broadcast address of 192.168.68.255

Test and hopefully all will work for you!

[Ben Warfield]

I’ll chime in from a networking point of view… yes the broadcast needs to be 192.168.63.255 as that is the highest address in the subnet. With a subnet mask of 255.255.240.0, 192.168.48.255 falls within the valid IP range and will not work as a broadcast. By sending a WOL packet to 48.255, you are only targeting one IP.

[pijltje]

I have update fog to latest svn 2429 and installed WOLBroadcast plugin set the broadcast to 192.168.63.255
but still no luck…
the system isn’t turned on and i do not see the wol.php in the access.log
if I do it manually in the browser then I will see the wol.php in the access.log and the system turns on…

[Tom Elliott]

Let me ask:

What tasking are you trying to perform that isn’t sending the WOL packet?

[Tom Elliott]

Do me a favor:

Check the FOG Configuration->FOG Settings->General Settings

FOG_WOL_HOST should be the IP of your FOG Server, or whichever FOG Server you’re attempting to do the WOL from: (E.G. 192.168.63.254)
FOG_WOL_PATH should be the location of the wol.php script in whole: (E.G. /fog/wol/wol.php)
FOG_WOL_INTERFACE should be the NIC of the interface you’re expecting Wake on Lan to come from: (E.G. eth0)

[pijltje]

[URL=‘http://…fog’]http://192.168.48.80[/URL]/fog/wol/wol.php?wakeonlan=00:1c:25:d1:xx:xx this is working…

FOG_WOL_HOST = 192.168.48.80
FOG_WOL_PATH = fog/wol/wol.php
FOG_WOL_INTERFACE -eth0

wake-up task not working, deploy a image the system also not starting…

[Tom Elliott]

Put the slash in front of the fog part int the path so it reads as /fog/wol/wol.php

[pijltje]

Sorry, what a mistake I am deeply ashamed :oops:

some where I forgot the slash… :oops:

SOLVED…

Hi,

I’m in 1.3 version. I haven’t any FOG_WOL Option in the Fog General setings and my wakeonlan doesn’t work.
Is that normal?

Thank

[Tom Elliott]

@Lombard wake on lab is handled much differently in trunk than it had been for fog 1.2.0. It no longer has a special page to send the packets as it once had and therefore does not require the fog settings element. If fog is not working in your environment if have to guess a few things. First, Wol is trying to go across su nets. Wol is a layer 2 element in similar respect to multicast. If udp packets are trying to cross sub nets this is likely the reason it’s not working for you. If udp packets are blocked to any/all subnets this could be the cause as well. To enable Wol across different subnets you need to enable udp broadcast forwarding in your network. This is an individual switch option so you likely need to work your way from the fog server up to the central with/router.

[Lombard]

@Tom-Elliott Thanks Tom for this explanation! Since yesterday i have completely reinstall my fog server in 1.2.0.
The wake on lan doesn’t work. My server is in the same VLAN that my client computer. I test wakeonlan directly in command line in the server and it works. My server fog is in a hyper-v environnement. I don’t understand beacause i work in different network with the same architectury and i never saw this problem.

Thanks

@Lombard and the “http://10.72.64.1/fog/wol/wol.php?wakeonlan=c0:3f:d5:35:fe:88” work…
