I'd never thought of WOL being used in corporate environments but someone mentioned the other day that theirs did so I was wondering if anyone tries flooding a network with WOL packets as part of a test to see if anything new wakes up.
It wouldn't take long to fire off a packet to every MAC address as it's a single packet and you don't care about the reply. If it is a standardised environment then you could limit the number you would have to send based on OUI. Robin
