Remote Power-on (WOL)

TrueNAS is usually installed on DIY hardware or servers, and the remote power-on function mainly depends on your motherboard hardware support:

  1. Hardware Support: Please ensure that your host motherboard supports and has enabled the WOL (Wake on LAN) function in the BIOS.
  2. Local Area Network Test: It is recommended to download a third-party remote power-on app to test whether the host can be normally awakened in the local area network.
  3. App Configuration: If the test is successful, you can get the network card’s MAC Address and fill it into the Remote Power-on -> Manual Power-on tab of the WalleCube app. Click Power On Now after filling in to achieve remote management.
