Configuring Periodic Server Monitoring
You can monitor the availability of servers. These parameters include the username and password
to use for the server and an idle timer. The idle timer specifies the interval in which a server
receives no requests before the Cisco Nexus device sends out a test packet.You can configure this option to
test servers periodically, or you can run a one-time only test.
To protect network security, we recommend that you use a username that is not the same as an existing
username in the database.
Note
The test idle timer specifies the interval in which a server receives no requests before the Cisco
Nexus device sends out a test packet.
The default idle timer value is 0 minutes. When the idle time interval is 0 minutes, periodic
server monitoring is not performed.
