How to configure Sophos XG so that Wake On LAN works from the LAN zone to the DMZ zone

Hi,

you will need a firewall rule based on the following from the lifewire site.

The magic packet that turns on the computer is normally sent as a UDP datagram over port 7 or 9. If this is the case with the program you're using to send the packet, and you're trying this from outside the network, you need to open those ports on the router and forward requests to every IP address on the network."

Some of those WOL solutions uses multi or broadcast to address all clients.

This is not possible to forward to another subnets.

Hi MBP,

yes, that was in the next paragraph on that lifewire site. Basically WOL only works on the same segment for most sites.
