WOL - Right click in C1

Posting in one of the Linux forums may be one of the best ways to go to get the details on how to permit directed subnet broadcasts to go through your routers.
I know it definitely can be done with Cisco routers since those are the most
commonly used, but I generally have not been in charge of configuring them
so I could not give the details on how to set it up.

This is a short report. Have really been looking around but no success in UDP-routing of directed broadcasts. Found a small tool by Luigi Auriemma called sudppipe. I run it on the router and it seems to work fine. Just a drawback, it doesn't tell you that the machine is up. But if I try to remote control it after 100 s or so the machine can be remotely managed and that was my main purpose.

sudppipe stands for: Simple UDP proxy/pipe
usage: sudppipe 192.168.0.255,192.168.1.255,10.1.1.255 1762 1761
where 192* and 10* ar the subnets that receives the "magic packets" 1762 is the port on the server that sends the packet and 1761 the port the server listens on
