⁠Wolbox - Small Web based Wake on LAN tool

Wolbox is a small web based tool, that you can use to wake sleeping computers on your LAN.

⁠Set Up

Enter your network details in wolbox/config.py. Then either run

$ ./run.sh

or run this on Docker with the provided dockerfile.

When running in Docker, use a command along the lines of:

$ docker run --rm --net=host --security-opt no-new-privileges -p 8080:8080 wolbox

The --net=host is necessary to allow the magic packages to be properly sent.

⁠Configuration

⁠SERVER_NAME

Set this to the FQDN of the host where you run this app. You can also set this via the environment variable WOLBOX_URL.

⁠DOMAIN

Set this to the domain where the hosts that you want to wake live. You can also set this via the environment variable WOLBOX_DOMAIN.

⁠SUBNET

Set this to the ip subnet in CIDR notation where the hosts that need waking live. You can also set this via the environment variable WOLBOX_SUBNET.

⁠SCAN_FREQ

Wolbox periodically scans the subnet to determine wether or not a host is online. Set this to the period in seconds (e.g. 20 ==> scan every 20 secons). You can also set this via the environment variable WOLBOX_SCAN_FREQ.
