The WAKEHOST statement specifies the computer to ping after the Wake on LAN (WOL) signal is sent. You can specify the WAKEHOST statement, together with the WAKEPORTS and TIMEOUT statements, to confirm that the computer is awake.
Note: If you do not provide any ping information, the job completes immediately after the WOL signal is sent without verifying whether the signal worked.
Supported Job Type
This statement is optional for the Wake on LAN job type.
Syntax
This statement has the following format:
WAKEHOST host
Specifies the host name or IP address of the computer to ping after the Wake on LAN (WOL) signal is sent.
Limits: Up to 100 characters; case-sensitive
Example: 172.24.36.107 (IPv4) or 0:0:0:0:0:FFFF:192.168.00.00 (IPv6)
Example: Broadcast the WOL Signal and Ping a Port
This example broadcasts the WOL signal to the server identified by the 172.16.00 IP address and the 00-1E-4F-C1-0F-FE MAC address. After the WOL signal is sent, the agent pings port 7 of the host computer to ensure it is available. If port 7 is available, the job completes successfully; otherwise, it fails. The job uses the default timeout for the ping.
