# ethtool Role
Installs ethtool and configures Wake-on-LAN (WoL) via a systemd service.
## Variables
```yaml
ethtool_wol_interface: "eth0" # Network interface to enable WoL on
```
## Usage
```yaml
- role: "ethtool"
vars:
ethtool_wol_interface: "enp0s25"
```
## Enabling Wake-on-LAN
Three steps required:
### 1. BIOS Configuration (manual)
**ThinkPad:**
1. Reboot → press `Enter` then `F1` at Lenovo splash
2. **Config** → **Network** → **Wake On LAN** → `AC Only` or `AC and Battery`
3. `F10` to save
**Other systems:** look in BIOS under **Power** → **APM** or **Advanced Power Management** → **Wake on LAN**.
Also disable **ErP/EuP Ready** to keep NIC powered during sleep.
### 2. Ansible (this role)
Enables WoL on the NIC via ethtool on every boot. Add to your play with the correct interface:
```yaml
ethtool_wol_interface: "enp0s25"
```
### 3. Suspend the host
WoL is most reliable from suspend (S3). Shutdown (S5) requires BIOS "WoL from S5" support.
```bash
systemctl suspend
```
## Sending the Magic Packet
From another host or FritzBox UI (**Home Network → Network → device → Wake on LAN**).
## Verify WoL is enabled
```bash
ethtool enp0s25 | grep Wake
# Wake-on: g ← means WoL is active
# Wake-on: d ← means WoL is disabled
```
