## Troubleshooting
This tool broadcasts the magic packet to the limited broadcast address 255.255.255.255 and port 9.
This tool broadcasts the magic packet to the broadcast address (and port 9) of all networks the physical interfaces connect to.
Install `tcpdump` to inspect the network traffic published to the limited broadcast address (255.255.255.255) and port 9
Install `tcpdump` to inspect the network traffic on the receiving node. And execute the tool from the source node.
```bash
$> # Update `enp42s0` to your interface name.
$> # To find out the interface to which the kernel
$> # routes the packets to, do
$> # ip route get 255.255.255.255
$> sudo tcpdump -i enp42s0 udp and host 255.255.255.255 and port 9 -n -XX
