7.5. Network control

7.5.1. Ping softdog

The PING SOFTDOG window contains controls to set up a constant

series of pings to one or more IP addresses.

If connectivity is lost between the unit and any of the saved IP addresses,

an option can also be set to automatically reboot the Cisco FM4200 Mobi.

TIP

As well as being a fail-safe mechanism to monitor network

connectivity, the constant ping can also be used as a 'keep-

alive' message to devices that need uninterrupted connectivity,

such as VoIP telephones.

To use the constant ping and automatic reboot functions, do the following

steps:

1. Click the -ping softdog link under NETWORK CONTROL in the

left-hand settings menu.

• The PING SOFTDOG dialog will be shown (Figure 27

(page 73)).
