XBOX ONE wake via ISY network resource

Here is a simple network resource I created to wake up your XBOX ONE (and possibly other models) via LAN.

As you may know, the XBOX ONE does not use standard Wake on LAN (WOL), but it can be woken from its blissful slumber with this network resource.

All you need to do to configure this resource is to first login to your XBOX, go to Settings -> System -> Console Info, and grab your "Xbox network device ID, then replace the dummy ID in the resource body with your own. 

Once you have that as text on your computer, copy and paste it into the body of "XBOX-ONE_Wake" and CAREFULLY replace the existing text "FD002149D1000000" with your own Xbox network device ID. DO NOT replace, delete or disrupt the surrounding special characters.

It's important NOT to delete any of the other existing text in the body, and the surrounding text is both required and difficult to undo if you mess it up, as they are special characters your host computer may not be happy working with. Just be careful to only highlight and replace the sample ID number FD002149D1000000, and just delete it and re-import the file to try again if you have to. 

NOTE: You may need to send the command up to 5 times to wake the console, as it uses UDP which does not retry dropped packets like TCP commands will. So basically you need to repeat the network resource call in your program several times to manually retry instead of relying of TCP to retry the transmission at the network level.
