@Perry:
hmm, i don't understand.. how is it limited to send magic packet from one nic ? (192.168.1.255)
I mixed some switches so never mind :)
ok, but now, how can i specify from which my interface magic packet will be sent ?
@Juve:
I'm currently using a simple bash script calling wget with some POST parameters (auth + backup page parameters).
working well since november 2005. ;)
I finally have time to get this integrated into my RANCID backup environment and was looking to do JUST that. Rather than recreating the wheel, could you post your code to do what you're doing? It'll save me time and likely a headache.

@killgannon:
… i cant even ping opt1 from anything on opt1....
Are you sure you got the alias definition for 'Wireless net' right? You use it for the access rule on the wireless tab.
If you can't even ping OPT1 from within OPT1 then the traffic gets blocked at the interface for some reason. Try to find out why.

Sorry about that! I did a search of the forum yesterday and never saw this one… thanks!
Things regarding virtual IPs are often not working due to arpcache issues of the devices in front of you. Try to reboot the device in front of you or take down the line for some minutes to make the arp caches expire.
