Wake on lan on Dell r720

Hello all

I Have the latest truenas scale solution installed on a dell r720.

I tried searching the net for a solution however non were applicable or worked.

I have a second truenas scale on a supermicro x10 and the WOL works fine

Can someone please provide me with a solution

Thank you

Depending on the motherboard in that 720 and the nics it uses WOL may not be supported or not enabled…

Thank you for your prompt reply

This is an original dell r720 board with 2 sockets.

ethtool -s [interface_name] wol g

Forgot to mention

if i do an ethtool eno1

i get

wake on lan d

i also tried this script in the truenas shell here above with no results

Found solution,

On the dell r720 once one presses F2 to enter the bios, go to device (all the NICs will be displayed)

for each nic got to the power settings and enable WOL and selec PXE for legacy boot

reboot the server

In truenas scale 25.04 enter the truenas shell as admin type

sudo ethtool (your network Interface name)

if you see in the displayed list wol d then you need to type the following command in the shell ethtool -s [interface_name] wol g once this is done type

sudo ethtool (your network Interface name) again to confirm wol g

reboot server

In home assistant automation i added the server mac address and save the automation.

i shut down the dell server and the ran the automation

it all worked

Thank you for your help

Hello all

Spoke to early

At the moment all my NICs (4 but only one connected to the lan) have wol enabled and the boot is PXE and i have in the edit init the following command “ethtool -s eno1 wol g” and still it does not wol

In going to the truenas shell and typing ethtool eno1 i still see the wake on lan as d

I was under the impression that by adding the command ethtool -s eno1 wol g to th would have made this change permanent in edit init.

Ids my syntax correct?

I so, what else have i done wrong?

thank you for your patience
