These are not the SOS messages.

But even then, if the RIPE servers can't 'see' the probe I can't do anything via the web interface, hence my wondering if there is any way to awaken it via a local network action (analogous to sending a WakeOnLAN ping)

Most likely it will need flash stick cyling.  But you'll see that in the
SOS messages.

(Repating myself, it would be *so* helpful if the mail "hey, your probe
is down!" actually included availble SOS diagnostics...)
