Automation
Automation settings page shows the current status of the AutoPing and Traffic Monitors that are set. It
also allows Automatic Configuration of these settings.
The Traffic Monitor shows the current throughput. This will update each time the Refresh button is
pressed.
To have the iBoot-PoE re-examine the network and auto-set the automation capabilities, press the Auto
Config button.
AutoPing
Two separate Auto Ping addresses can be set with And/Or logic.
Address: Enter the IP address of the device,
or domain name to be pinged. To enter the
second address and settings, select AND or
OR for the A/B Logic.
Ping Frequency: Enter 1 to 999 seconds. The
ping will go out to the selected device this
often.
Fail Count: Enter 1-999 times the ping needs
to fail consecutively before the selected action
is taken. When the fail count has been
reached, the AutoPing action will be triggered.
Mode: Select from Single, AND, OR. With
AND, both AutoPings need to exceed their fail
count to trigger the Action. With OR, the
Action will be triggered if either AutoPing fails.
Action: Select from
None
AutoPing is paused. No Ping tests will be performed.
Power On – Latch
Upon triggering, iBoot-PoE will power on and remain so until changed via the
web, telnet, DxP, etc.
Power On – Follow
Upon triggering, iBoot-PoE will power on. When the ping response returns,
iBoot-PoE will power off.
Power Off – Latch
Upon triggering, iBoot-PoE will power off and remain so until changed via the
web, telnet, DxP, etc.
Power Off – Follow
Upon triggering, iBoot-PoE will power off. When the ping response returns,
iBoot-PoE will power on.
Cycle
Cycle Times
Upon triggering, iBoot-PoE will cycle the power. If Power Cycle does not
result in the ping response the iBoot-PoE can cycle again. The number of
times the iBoot-PoE will cycle is set by the
Cycle
Times
setting. To have the
iBoot cycle power 3 times to get the system to respond again, set the Cycle
Times to 3.
Restart: This setting delays the restart of the AutoPing tests after the Action is completed. This setting
allows time for the boot sequence of the failed device to complete.
