Auto-Ping
The Auto-Ping feature allows iBoot to automatically detect failed
equipment and perform a timed reboot or other power control
function (like turning on an indicator or siren). You set any IP
address to be periodically Ping'ed. When iBoot no longer
detects a response from the address, the programmed power
control function is actuated.
♦ Use Auto-Ping Locally: Put iBoot next to the device to be
monitored and reboot it automatically when it no longer
responds.
♦ Use Auto-Ping Remotely: Put iBoot at a central facility to
monitor a remote system and power up an alert when the
remote device no longer responds.
