Construct Wake on Lan (WoL) magic packet to power on mini PC via LAN

Usage

woly aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff

Magic Packet

Magic packet is constructed as follows

FF x 6; Mac Address x 15

eg.

FF FF FF FF FF FF
AA BB CC DD EE FF
AA BB CC DD EE FF
...

Target Destination

The magic packet shall be sent to limited broadcast IP - 255.255.255.255 and the Discard Protocol Port 9.

While sending it to targeted IP, for eg. 192.168.0.2 bound to desired mac address of the device might work, it is not reliable as sometimes the ARP cache will not be updated by router due to device being in low power mode and will drop this packet.
