    👻 I would like to know if there is a command to send wol (magic packets) via the pfSense shell terminal interface? Sometimes, I would like to wake up my other computers via the pfSense terminal shell instead of logging into my PC's to wake up other devices. Currently, wol works fine for me. I just want to know if there's another option of triggering wol in pfSense using the terminal interface instead via the GUI. Is this possible? 👻
