Hello list- have gleamed some great info from all that participate on this list. Just wanted to take a sec to say thanks. My group manages a very large network infrastructure for many disparate customers. One component has recently asked for us to enable ip broadcasts (something we kept disabled on our routers for security) so as to use the functionality of Wake on Lan (WOL). I'm looking for some insights into the security condiderations that anyone has made in determining whether or not to allow this. Appreciate any help anyone can provide.
