You could use an existing Opnsense user but I’d suggest creating a separate one just for HASS.

Next step is creating a REST API token.

I think this step is optional given the later steps but it can’t hurt to add.

Go to Services->Wake on Lan and click the plus icon in the bottom right corner next to “Wake All”, and add your device/MAC address along with the interface.

Install the os-wol plugin in Opnsense by going to System->Firmware->Plugins.

I wanted to target mine since I have a few that I like to sleep/wake up so I kept digging a bit. Their solution was simply to wake all devices. However, the Reddit post from /u/abstractbarista linked above got me 90% of the way there. The documentation for the WOL API on Opnsense is….lacking. Opnsense has a REST API that you can call prettily easily, particularly when combined with HomeAssistant’s REST API command integration. But that’s just too much effort when you can get it into HomeAssistant! Opnsense Setup Worst case I could just log into Opnsense, go to the WOL service and wake up my homelab server. I discovered Opnsense has a WOL plugin and found it worked great. You can do so much on your router if you run Opnsense/PFsense (depending on which is your cup of tea, not getting into the debate between the two here) it really is worth it. The main thing I’m really loving is all the plugins and tools that are available. Coming from an Edgerouter the difference is just night and day. I’ve been running Opnsense as my firewall for about 2 months now and I have to say I love it.

Well I don’t have a Wifi network for my Homelab VLAN so I can’t use a Pi Zero, and I really didn’t want to use a full Pi for something as simple as WOL.Įnter Opnsense. Instead of having to shut it down/turn it back on (requiring me to trudge down to my basement) I figured I’d try using WOL and just suspending the server when I’m not using it. However I’ve been playing around with a homelab (my old retired server) but I didn’t want it running 24/7 wasting power when I only use it sporadically. My bigger problem was that I needed a Pi Zero on the same subnet which usually wasn’t a problem. It worked great but having to poke firewall rules, having SSH keys on HomeAssistant, etc always made me a little uncomfortable. I then set up SSH keys and added it to HomeAssistant, along with a script I could call via a shell_command. To get around this, my solution for a long time was to have a Raspberry Pi Zero on the subnet I wanted with the wakeonlan package. My biggest annoyance is with my network setup, I have multiple VLANs/subnets, and WOL doesn’t really like to be routed across subnets for reasons I only barely understand so I’m not going to try to explain. WakeOnLAN is one of those things that you love to hate.

The main differences being 1) little bit improved layout/format (subjective) and 2) I figured out how to do a call to just wake a single device. Most of the steps below come from their guide. Wake-On-LAN Virtual Machine shows log information on the screen, generates a log file and Event Viewer logs.Note: Significant hat tip here to /u/abstractbarista for this guide. The Windows service allows to power on virtual machines without logon to the host machine. The program consists of a Windows GUI application and a Windows service.

If a magic packet contains a six byte SecureOn password the machine only wakes up if the password is correct. If Wake-On-LAN Virtual Machine receives a magic packets with MAC address which is in the list it turns on the found virtual machine using vendor utilities. The list can be exported to different file formats. Then it retrieves a list of virtual machine names, their MAC addresses and optional SecureOn passwords and shows it as a tree view.

When the program starts it searches for existing Microsoft Hyper-V, Windows Virtual PC, Microsoft Virtual PC 2007, Oracle VM VirtualBox, VMware Server, VMware Workstation, VMware Player and Parallels Workstation virtual machines. Wake-On-LAN Virtual Machine implements the Wake-On-LAN computer networking standard to turn on virtual machines. If physical host machine has not enough resources or performance to keep every virtual machine running the solution is to start virtual machines only when needed.
