CHAPTER 6: Reboot Options
95
• Ping Delay After PNA Action: Determines how long the Outlet Managed
PDU will wait to send additional Ping commands, after a Ping-No-Answer
Reboot has been initiated. Typically, this option is used to allow time for a
device to fully "wake up" after a Ping-No-Answer Reboot before attempting
to Ping the device again. (Default = 15 Minutes.)
• Consecutive Failures: Determines how many consecutive failures of the
Ping command must be detected in order to initiate a Ping-No-Answer
Reboot. For example, if this value is set to "3", then after three consecutive
Ping failures, a Ping-No-Answer Reboot will be performed. (Default = 5.)
• Reboot: Enables/Disables the Ping-No-Answer Reboot function for the
specied IP address. When this item is disabled, the Outlet Managed
PDU will not reboot the specied outlet(s) when a Ping-No-Answer is
detected. However, the Outlet Managed PDU can continue to notify you
via Email, Syslog Message and/or SNMP Trap, providing that parameters
for these functions have been dened as described in Section 5.9 and email
notication for the Ping-No-Answer function has been enabled as described
in Section 7.5. (Default = No.)
Notes:
• In order for Email/Text Message Notification to function, you
must first define Email/Text Message parameters as described in
Section 5.9.11.
• In order for Syslog Message Notification to function, you must
first define a Syslog Address as described in Section 5.9.2.
• In order for SNMP Trap Notification to function, you must first
define SNMP parameters as described in Section 5.9.7.
• PNA Action: Determines how the Outlet Managed PDU will react when the
IP address fails to respond to a ping. The Outlet Managed PDU can either
continuously reboot the specied outlet(s) and send notication until the IP
address responds and the Ping-No-Answer Reboot is cleared (Continuous
Alarm/Reboot), or the Outlet Managed PDU can reboot the specied outlet(s)
and send notication only once each time the Ping-No-Answer Reboot is
initially triggered (Single Alarm/Reboot.) (Default = Continuous
Alarm/Reboot.)
