Hi,
I just build my first NAS with freenas. Everything is working fine, exept that I can't get Wake On Lan to work.
My build:
Mainboard + Onboard CPU: MSI C847MS-E33
RAM: 8GB
Storage: 2x Seagate Barracuda 2TB in Raid 0
I know it's not an optimal build for a NAS (Raid 0, non-ECC RAM,...). But it had to be cheap and low power consuming.
More to my problem:
"ifconfig" says that the mainboard is capable of WOL
re0: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500 options=82099<RXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,WOL_MAGIC,LINKSTATE> capabilities=8399b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4,WOL_UCAST,WOL_MCAST,WOL_MAGIC,LINKSTATE>
It's the first time I'm using wake on lan, so I have not really a idea where the problem could be.
I've enabled wol with the comand:
ifconfig re0 wol wol_ucast wol_mcast wol_magic
But after a restart the tool I'm using for wake on lan "WOL2" (http://oette.wordpress.com/wol2/) shows my NAS sometimes as offline or online. And when I'm sending a package nothing happens.
I hope someone, who has more experience with freenas, can help me with this problem.
