NAME
     pwol - Send Wake-On-LAN (WoL) packets to wake-up hosts over the network

SYNOPSIS
     pwol [options] [<hosts|groups>]

DESCRIPTION
     pwol  is  a tool that can be used to send WoL (Wake-On-LAN) network packets
     in order to wake-up sleeping hosts, either directly or via routers.

     It can also be used as a WoL proxy daemon listening to incoming WoL packets
     (possibly authenticated) and then forwarding requests to one or many  other
     targets.

     If no hosts or groups are specified on the command line then pwol will read
     them from the command line.
