Description

This module will turn on a remote machine with a network card that
supports wake-on-lan (or MagicPacket). In order to use this, you must
know the machine's MAC address in advance. The current default MAC
address is just an example of how your input should look like.

The password field is optional. If present, it should be in this hex
format: 001122334455, which is translated to "0x001122334455" in binary.
Note that this should be either 4 or 6 bytes long.
