Ping Watchdog
Ping Watchdog sets the airFiber X radio to continuously
ping a user‑defined IP address (the Internet gateway, for
example). If it is unable to ping under the user‑defined
constraints, the airFiber X radio will automatically reboot.
This option creates a kind of “fail‑proof” mechanism.
Ping Watchdog is dedicated to continuous monitoring of
the specific connection to the remote host using the Ping
tool. The Ping tool works by sending ICMP echo request
packets to the target host and listening for ICMP echo
response replies. If the defined number of replies is not
received, the tool reboots the airFiber X radio.
Ping Watchdog Enables use of Ping Watchdog .
•
IP Address To Ping
Specify the IP address of the target
host to be monitored by Ping Watchdog .
• Ping Interval Specify the time interval (in seconds)
between the ICMP echo requests that are sent by Ping
Watchdog . The default value is 300 seconds.
• Startup Delay Specify the initial time delay (in seconds)
until the first ICMP echo requests are sent by Ping
Watchdog . The default value is 300 seconds.
The Startup Delay value should be at least 60 seconds
as the network interface and wireless connection
initialization takes a considerable amount of time if the
airFiber X radio is rebooted.
• Failure Count to Reboot Specify the number of ICMP
echo response replies. If the specified number of ICMP
echo response packets is not received continuously,
Ping Watchdog will reboot the airFiber X radio. The
default value is 3 .
