System Monitor - NetComm 3G27WV-02 User Manual

System Monitor

The Periodic Ping Reset Monitor configures the NetComm Wireless 3G27WV-02 to transmit controlled ping packets to user-
specified IP addresses. If the router does not receive a response to the pings the router will reboot. The purpose of this feature is
to ensure recovery of the device if the internet connection disconnects and does not reconnect for some reason.
This feature works as follows:-
At a time interval specified by the "Periodic Ping Timer" value in seconds, the NetComm Wireless 3G27WV-02

sends 3 consecutive pings to the "Destination Address".
If all 3 pings fail the NetComm Wireless 3G27WV-02 sends 3 consecutive pings to the "Second Address".

 The NetComm Wireless 3G27WV-02 then sends 3 consecutive pings to the "Destination Address" and 3
consecutive pings to the "Second Address" at the time interval specified by the "Periodic Ping Accelerated Timer"
value in seconds.
If all accelerated pings fail, the NetComm Wireless 3G27WV-02 reboots after waiting the amount of time specified

by the "Fail Count" value in seconds.
If any of the pings succeed, the NetComm Wireless 3G27WV-02 returns to the first step and does not reboot.

Note: The "Periodic Ping Timer" should never be set to a value less than 60 seconds; this is to allow the NetComm
Wireless 3G27WV-02 time to reconnect to the cellular network following a reboot.
To disable the Periodic Ping Reset Monitor function, set the "Fail Count" option to a value of 0.
The NetComm Wireless 3G27WV-02 can be configured to automatically reboot at an interval specified in minutes. While this is not
necessary, it does ensure that in the case of remote installations the NetComm Wireless 3G27WV-02 will reboot if some anomaly
occurs. The default value is 0 which disables the Periodic Reset Timer while the maximum value is 65535 minutes.
