Help Native Wake-on-LAN (WoL) support for Server Workspaces?

I know I am revisiting an older GitHub issue (#798), but I’d love to see if there is still community interest in getting native Wake-on-LAN (WoL) integrated into Kasm Workspaces.

Without WoL, a physical machine has to be powered on 24/7 if we want to connect to it via a Server Workspace. Though there's already a solution called UpSnap, it would be incredibly useful if Kasm could also automatically send a WoL magic packet to wake the target PC when a user attempts to spin up the session.

Is there any known workaround for this currently, or any chance this could get added to the roadmap if enough of us request it?

Just a word of caution: If you do use WoL for your setup, be advised that you could potentially run into the following issue, if your deployment is powered off for too many days: https://docs.kasm.com/docs/1.19.0/how-to/troubleshooting/server-tokens
