Ah, right. Last time you answered "ok, I'm sorry, I haven't red your
message at all." so then I thought "what's the use to answer"..
If WOL packets really *do* enter your network then I don't know how to
block them.
According to the AMD whitepaper a WOL packet is sent using a subnet
directed broadcast to pass through routers. If you search around the
internet, you find that directed broadcasts can be blocked by using:
"echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts".
But, that's ICMP and UDP seems (commonly) to be used for WOL packets so
this would not help you.
Gr,
Rob
