Variables

Variable	Default	Description
wol_interface	eno1	Network interface
wol_mode	g	WOL mode (magic packet)
wol_verify	true	Verify WOL status

Notes for Proxmox admins

Auto-detection works best when: The management IP uses the physical NIC You are not routing management via vmbr0 only

If your default route is on vmbr0, manual override is recommended

BIOS must still have: Wake on LAN enabled ErP disabled
