Test Delay is the number of seconds to wait after starting this connection before
testing whether it is functioning correctly, a longer delay is used for connection types
that are slow to establish, such as dialout.
•
Retry Delay is the number of seconds to wait after a connection test fails before re-
attempting the test.
•
Times to attempt this connection is the number of times to try a connection before
giving up. Once the CyberGuard SG appliance has given up trying this connection,
manual intervention is required to re-establish it.
Click Next to configure settings specific to the Test Type.
•
If you selected a Test Type of Always Up, no further configuration is required. Skip
ahead to Modify failover levels (primary, secondary, tertiary).
•
If you selected Custom, enter the custom Test Command that is used to test the
connection, e.g.: myscript 5 10 ping -c 1 -I $if_netdev 15.1.2.3
Note
If the Test Command exits with a return code of zero (0), the test is deemed to have
passed and the connection is considered up. Otherwise, the connection is considered
down. Also note that $if_netdev is replaced with the name of the network interface
on which the test is being run, e.g. ppp0.
•
If you selected Ping, enter an IP Address to Ping. Ensure you choose a host on the
Internet that can be contacted reliably and responds to pings. You can check whether
you can ping a host under Diagnostics -> Network Tests -> Ping Test.
