WOL & Sleep

Command to Wake and/or Sleep on LAN

from Stardock Forums

Hello! I'm on Windows 11 Pro 23H2 and Multiplicity 3.6 Build 00105 for both my primary and secondary computers.

Is the Wake On LAN feature accessible by command line? (for example:  C:\>Program Files (x86)/Stardock/Multiplicity -wake -pc SecondaryName)

Additionally, does there exist or is there future consideration for Sleep On LAN support?

Currently I use WOL by Aquila to automatically wake and sleep both my primary and secondary PCs using a command line script connected to a button on my Stream Deck, but I'd much prefer to use whatever native Multiplicity wake and sleep options already exist or might exist in the future.

Thanks!

I am aware that WOL is a feature in the system tray context menu and inside the Mulitiplicity GUI, that is not my question.

I am asking if the WOL feature is able to be ran using the command line instead so I can set it to run using Task Scheduler.

Here is what an example of the command line call would look like: C:\>Program Files (x86)/Stardock/Multiplicity -wake -pc SecondaryName

Additionally, I was asking of Sleep On LAN was a feature as well.
