Terminal watchdog
The Terminal watchdog continuously monitors the operational status of the terminal and
allows you to perform the following actions at regular intervals (set by the user):
• Start a data connection (PDP context)
• Verify your data connection (ping - similar to Connection watchdog)
The terminal continuously monitors:
• The time (monitors that UTC time is received from GPS at startup)
• CS-attach (the status of the circuit-switched connection)
If any of the actions fail, the terminal restarts.
Set up Terminal watchdog
To set up the Terminal watchdog, do as follows:
1. Under
Advanced
, select
Terminal watchdog
.
Note
Ping commands are sent on all active data connections. For the Connection watchdog
to work, the data connection must be (re)started after enabling the Connection
Watchdog. If ACA is enabled, the data connection is restarted automatically. See
Automatic Context Activation (ACA) on page 81
.
Note
Use a server that is reliable and that responds to ICMP Echo Requests.
