--- Comment #1 from Marek Zarychta <zarychtam at plan-b.pwste.edu.pl> ---
It's not a bug, it's a feature. I assume you have enabled WoL in BIOS/UEFI.
The interface should be brought up with one of its WoL capabilities, so in
/etc/rc.conf you should have at least :
ifconfig_em0="up wol_magic"

I got it working with I217-LM, but the machine could be suspended only once,
suspending after resume works, but workstation wakes up almost immediately.
Next long lasting sleep state is possible after reboot. It's probably another
feature.
