Input the IP Address or web address of the IP you would like to ping.
Select the action that you would like the Ping Function to use when the device being Ping cannot
be located or is not responding.
Ping Failures:
Select the number of Ping Failures that you would like to occur before the action is activated. The
reddish pink number to the right represents the actual number of ping failures. Keep in mind that
four consecutive pings equals to 1 Ping failure.
Example:
Say you have
Port 2 set to 2 Ping failures
this is what would happen:
Port 1
: Pings with no failure the device will move to Port 2
Port 2:
If Port 2 has a Ping failure it will continue Pinging until 4 unsuccessful ping with equals 1
failure.
Ping failure is now 1
Then it moves to the next port. (When it reaches the designated Ping failures then the action will
happen)
Port 3:
Pings with no failure the device will move to Port 4
Port 4:
Pings with no failure the device will move to Port 1
Port 1:
Pings with no failure the device will move to Port 2
Port 2:
If Port 2 has a Ping failure it will continue Pinging until 4 unsuccessful ping with equals 1
failure.
Ping Failure is now 2
9258 will do the action and reset Port 2 by Turning the port off first
Then since you have set the timer to 1 minute and 20 seconds, the device will turn back on the
port in that time.
Note: The timer is usually used for devices that have a boot up time this will prevent the device from
continuously resetting the device attached
Then the 9258 will continue to then next port and continue this cycle.
Port 3:
Pings with no failure the device will move to Port 4
Port 4:
Pings with no failure the device will move to Port 1
