Expert Net Control 2312
Configuration
the watchdog waits until the monitored device is answering to pings again. After this the watchdog is
armed again. When you select the option retry BOOTING after RESET failure, the watchdog is armed
directly after the watchdog action is executed.
This option has the following pitfall: If at the Port to be monitored a server connected, that is in need
for a long boot process, because it is doing a file system check, the server would probably exceed the
tripping time of the watchdog. The server would be switched off and on again, and the file system
check is restarted. This would be repeated endlessly.
retry Boot after N ping timeouts: If retry BOOTING after RESET failure is enabled, the device waits N
Ping intervals until the connected device is switched off and on again.
