Automatic Reboot
When this option is set to
On
, WebSwitch™ will operate in
Automatic Reboot
mode. In
Automatic
Reboot
mode, WebSwitch™ is configured to periodically confirm that another device (such as a
server, computer, router, etc.) is working by sending ping requests to the device. WebSwitch™
expects a response after each ping. If a pre-set number of ping requests fail, it is assumed that the
device is not functioning properly. WebSwitch™ will attempt to restore the device to normal
operation by rebooting the device. In
Automatic Reboot
mode, users still have the ability to
manually reboot the device from a remote location over the network. The default setting for this field
is
Off
.
When automatic reboot is set to
Off
, WebSwitch™ will operate in
Normal
mode. In
Normal
mode,
WebSwitch™ will only change the state of the outlets when commanded by a user.
