Build your own Wake-On-Lan script in Python
November 13th, 2008 No comments
You need some simple way to wake up another computer? And you have Python at your disposal?
Great! All you need is this tiny script:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import socket
s=socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
s.sendto('\xff'*6+'\xaa\xbb\xcc\xdd\xee\xff'*16, ('172.31.3.33', 80))
print "sent wake up call to server..."
Substitute the aa, bb, … , ff with the MAC adress of your target, and use the correct IP adress.
That’s all ![]()
