WOL still not working

Hi,

Just a little clarification: when I talked about a "hidden" switch, I meant
a switch that I forgot to configured... :)
What I did on my 5500 switch was to enable "ip forward-broadcast" on the
switch (under system-view) and also under each vlan interface (system-view,
interface vlan X, ip forward-broadcast)
I also activate udp-helper for port 1761 (udp-helper port 1761 under
system-view)

Hope this will help.
