3. Wake on LAN: No 802.1x Authentication
The first scenario tested used the WOL capability on the Avaya switching infrastructure without any type
of end user authentication (namely 802.1x).
The following details the configuration of the network and PC’s:
All port-based VLANs were used on the ES stacks and the ERS 8600 Switch Cluster
PC1 is connected to port 2/20 on ES Stack 1
Port 2/20 is configured in port-based VLAN 22
PC2 is connected to port 1/10 on ES Stack 2
Port 1/10 is configured in port-based VLAN 23
PC2 is used to wake up PC1
– in order to easily test WOL a small piece of software is installed
on PC2. There are several freeware programs available on the web. For this test, Matcode
software (

) was used.
Matcode Specific Usage
Usage:
MC-WOL XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX [/p <Password>] [/a <IP Address>]
XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX is the MAC address of the PC to wake up
IP Address is only required if PC is on a different Layer 2 domain
IP Address is the broadcast address for the destination VLAN (subnet)
