If you don't want to keep your home server on all the time, and you've got a little Rapsberry Pi plugged in the corner, then take a look here.

Perfect for HP ProLiant servers as it works with iLO technology in addition to Wake-on-LAN of course and you can easily create a module to start and stop your server as you wish. You can also check its status.

You can also use it to bypass the technical restrictions preventing the broadcasting of a magic packet (WOL) within the internal network over a VPN. This way you can start and stop it from the outside.
