WakeOnLan, Archlinux, systemd-networkd, Asus Pro WS X570-ACE
The board has two integrated ethernet adapters, here’s the lshw data:

It seems that the UEFI entry to activate Wake on Lan for PCIe devices only affects the Intel port, I have persistently activated WOL for the Realtek port by adding a .link file to /etc/systemd/network/foobar.link
[Match]
MACAddress=<redacted>
[Link]
WakeOnLan=magic
# below lines are cloned from original entry in
# /usr/lib/systemd/network/99-default.link
# which is the default link file for all adapters whose section is hereby overwritten
NamePolicy=keep kernel database onboard slot path
AlternativeNamesPolicy=database onboard slot path
MACAddressPolicy=persistent
The arch wiki shows a couple of alternative ways, but this seems to be the most straight forward for me.
