Wake-On-Lan from different subnet

Jhaislet
I've got a file server set up on a different subnet that I to be able to "wake up" only when needed.

I'm able to wake up the file server just fine by sending it a "magic packet" from within the same subnet (packet sent to 192.168.1.255 broadcast).

However, I'm unable to get the fileserver woken up by sending the same packet from 192.168.2.xxx subnet.  I'm using AMD's Magic Packet Utility and still sending the wake-up packet to the 192.168.1.255 broadcast address. 

I suspect the 192.168.2.xxx subnet is NOT forwarding the Magic Packet to the 192.168.1.xxx broadcast address (192.168.1.255).

What do I need to setup in ASL v5.2 to make it forward the broadcast packets to the appropriate subnet?
