Monitoring of the connection

On this page, you activate a ping test that monitors connections. During the ping test, the device
sends ICMP echo request packets (pings) to the configured destination address at regular
intervals. If this destination address does not respond, the device tries to reach the destination
address again. If all ping attempts (retries) are unsuccessful, the ping test is considered to have
failed or the group is considered unreachable. If the group is not reachable, the device initiates
the configured action on the selected interface. If all 5 actions have been executed or after a
restart, the device starts again with the first action.
Description
● Enable Connection Check
Enable or disable the ping test for connection monitoring.
