The Magic Packet sequence consists of 16 duplications of the receiving node’s IEEE address, with no breaks or interruptions. This sequence can be located anywhere within the packet, but must be preceded by a synchronization stream. The synchronization stream, defined as 6 bytes of FFh, allows the scanning state machine to be much simpler. The device will also accept a BROADCAST frame, as long as the 16 duplications of the IEEE address match the address of the machine to be awakened. If the IEEE address for a particular node on the network was 11h 22h 33h 44h 55h 66h, then the LAN controller would be scanning for the data sequence (assuming an Ethernet Frame):
