Cisco Wake on LAN

The clients we are trying to wake up are physically connected to another cisco catalsy 2960 switch. All the portsa on that switch are setup for "spanning-tree portfast" per my cisco document. The switch is also setup as a vtp client in order to recieve vlan information from the core 6509.

We tested waking up a pc on VLAN1 and that seemed to work. Looks like the issue is more specific to crossing the vlan boundaries.

See if this can help

From reading that is looks like I should be a static ARP entry into the core switch for the LANdesk server which is the box generating the WOL packets. Am I interpreting that correctly?

This is what I think about how this trick works. the WOL program needs to target the magic packet to a ip address on the same subnet of the client we want to WOL. On the switch or router responsible for doing ARP for this subnet we configure a static arp as mentioned on this blog. When the packet arrives it is broadcasted and recieved by all hosts on this subnet. Obviously the ip address used shouldn't be assigned to a client on this subnet. I am not sure if this is correct but you can give it a try and see.

Well, there is more to the command than just "10.1.200.72 FFFF.FFFF.FFFF". I'm not sure what all parameters I would need to use. See below

CAT-6509(config)#arp 10.1.200.72 FFFF.FFFF.FFFF

I think arpa is the only argument needed. Have a look at this free utility. It looks interesting and may be works beyond broadcat boundaries.

no go. I tried the static arp entry and it stopped all RDP sessions into that server.
