WebSwitch Installation and Operation Manual
SETUP
The following parameters (4-10) are available only when Auto Reboot is set to ON.
4. Ping IP Address:
This is the IP address that WebSwitchTM will ping. This is typically the IP address
of the device that will be re-booted upon failure (such as a server, router, computer,
etc.). It could however, be the address of a device on the opposite side of a com-
munications link when WebSwitchTM is used to reboot a communication device
that does not have an IP address such as a CSU/DSU, satellite modem, router, etc.
5. Successful Ping Period:
This is the time interval (in seconds) between successful ping requests. This time
can be set from 1 to 60000 seconds (1000 minutes or 16.666 hours). The factory
default for this setting is 60 seconds.
6. Unsuccessful Ping Period:
When ping requests fail (no response from device), it may be desirable to begin
pinging at a shorter time interval. This allows WebSwitchTM to determine in less
time that the device is not functioning. After each unsuccessful ping, WebSwitchTM
will wait this time interval (in seconds) before the next ping attempt. This time can
be set from 1 to 60000 seconds (1000 minutes or 16.666 hours). The factory default
for this setting si 10 seconds.
7. Delay Before First Ping After Reboot:
When WebSwitchTM is first powered, it will wait this time interval (in seconds)
before beginning to ping the device. This time delay allows the device to boot
before being pinged. This time can be set from 0 to 60000 seconds (1000 minutes
or 16.666 hours). The factory default for this setting is120 seconds.
