## TL;DR

```sh
# Install `wakeonlan`.
brew install 'wakeonlan'

# Send a WOL package to the host.
wakeonlan '11:22:33:44:55:66'

# Simulate.
wakeonlan -n '11:22:33:44:55:66'

# Limit the magic package to a specific network or host.
# Use a network's *broadcast* address unless you have a static ARP table
# configured so the magic packet can actually reach the single host.
wakeonlan -i '192.168.1.255' '11:22:33:44:55:66'
wakeonlan -n '11:22:33:44:55:66' -i '192.168.100.3'
```
