35.7.6  Va_eventd: connection testers 
There are two types of connection testers: 
  ping connection tester, and 
  link connection tester. 
Multiple connection testers can be defined and each forwarding section can be given a 
label for identification. For example: 
To define a connection tester label of Tester1 using package options, enter: 
config conn_tester ‘Tester1’ 
 
To define a forwarding label of Tester1 using UCI, enter: 
va_eventd.Tester1=conn_tester 
 
In the examples below no connection tester label has been defined. 
35.7.6.1 Ping connection tester 
A ping connection tester tests that a connection can be established by sending pings. 
If successful, the event system assumed the connection is valid for a configurable 
amount of time. 
35.7.6.2 Ping connection tester using UCI 
va_eventd.@conn_tester[0]=conn_tester 
va_eventd.@conn_tester[0].name=pinger 
va_eventd.@conn_tester[0].enabled=1 
va_eventd.@conn_tester[0].type=ping
