Automatic Reboot
iBoot-PoE-P provides two ways to monitor your application and provide automatic reboot when
configurable conditions are met
AutoPing
The AutoPing feature allows iBoot-PoE-P to automatically detect failed equipment and perform a timed
reboot or other power control function. You set one or two IP addresses to be periodically pinged. When
iBoot-PoE-P no longer detects a response from these addresses, the programmed power control function
is actuated. The two addresses can be AND or OR linked so that both (AND) or either (OR) need to fail in
order to take the selected action.
With AutoPing, it is also possible to turn ON or OFF the PD when the trigger conditions are met.
See Section 5.5 On AutoPing Setup
Traffic Monitor
Traffic Monitor measures the bandwidth utilization and reboots the PD when the utilization is too low or too
high. It is specifically designed to support high speed access points that crash or degrade over time and
need a quick reboot to get up and running properly.
In addition to setting minimum and (optionally) a maximum traffic, settings allow for monitoring of the
Uplink and/or Downlink, and to disable the traffic monitoring function at specific times of the day, like when
your coffee shop is closed.
See Section 5.5 on Traffic Monitor Setup
Scheduling
Scheduling provides calendar based control of power, to power up or down devices as needed, or to
provide regular reboots to insure proper operation. See Section 0
