Wake on Lan WOL works, but switch doesn't show proper status of PC

Configuration
1

Hello, I’ve enabled WOL in my configuration and the switch works, meaning it will turn on my pc when I activate the switch. However the switch never stays in the “on” position. I thought that it would ping or use network discovery to verify if it’s on or not, but it doesn’t. Is this normal behavior or should it ping and show the “on” state?

I’m running Home Assistant 0.58.1 on rpi3.

switch:
  - platform: wake_on_lan
    mac_address: "FC-AA-14-C1-A2-39"
    name: "NVIDIA-GTX970"
    host: "192.168.1.26"

Thank you!!

I connected to the pi and noticed I couldn’t ping my desktop computer. It had the firewall enabled! duh. I allowed ICMP on the Inbound rules and it’s working now. Thanks.
