Thanks a lot. Only, I had to add that line as a > script in the /etc/network/if-up.d directory.
It's OK, I just thought it was more suitable to set wol for the card on network stop, not start. But I was perhaps wrong about the post-down, perhaps a bit too late. If it work at start, let's go. Personnaly, I prefer to add a "up" line in my /etc/network/interfaces instead of create a script in /etc/network/if-up.d. That Way I know wich interface is up.
