PING Reboot
PING Reboot function will periodically send PING command to server and waits for echo receive. If no echo is received
router will try again sending PING command defined number times, after defined time interval. If no echo is received
after the defined number of unsuccessful retries, router will reboot. It is possible to turn of the router rebooting after
defined unsuccessful retries. Therefore this feature can be used as “Keep Alive” function, when router PINGs the host
unlimited number of times.
