Use `/etc/kvmd/override.yaml`. The format is: +```yaml +kvmd: + wol: + mac: ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff +``` +Replace `ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff` with the MAC of your server. By default, a packet is sent via a broadcast request to the entire IPv4 network (`255.255.255.255`, port `9`), but you can address it to a specific static address: +```yaml +kvmd: + wol: + mac: ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff + ip: 192.168.0.100 + # port: 9 # By default +``` +then restart `kvmd`. + +### GPIO method (multiple hosts) +Follow the [manual for building the GPIO menu](gpio.md) and use the `wol ' driver to build a menu with many buttons tied to different hosts.
