Ping Interval

Specify the time interval (in seconds)

between the ICMP echo requests that are sent by Ping
Watchdog
. The default value is 300 seconds.

Startup Delay

Specify the initial time delay (in seconds)

until the first ICMP echo requests are sent by Ping
Watchdog
. The default value is 300 seconds.
The Startup Delay value should be at least 60 seconds
as the network interface and wireless connection
initialization takes a considerable amount of time if the
AF-5X is rebooted.

Failure Count to Reboot

Specify the number of ICMP

echo response replies. If the specified number of ICMP
echo response packets is not received continuously,
Ping Watchdog will reboot the AF-5X. The default value
is 3.

Save Support Info

This generates a support

information file.

SNMP Agent

Simple Network Monitor Protocol (SNMP) is an application
layer protocol that facilitates the exchange of management
information between network devices. Network
administrators use SNMP to monitor network-attached
devices for issues that warrant attention.
The AF-5X contains an SNMP Agent, which does the
following:
• Provides an interface for device monitoring using SNMP
• Communicates with SNMP management applications

for network provisioning

• Allows network administrators to monitor network

performance and troubleshoot network problems

For the purpose of equipment identification, configure the
SNMP Agent with contact and location information:

SNMP Agent

Enables the SNMP Agent.

SNMP Community

Specify the SNMP community

string. It is required to authenticate access to
Management Information Base (MIB) objects and
functions as an embedded password. The AF-5X also
supports a read-only community string; authorized
management stations have read access to all the objects
in the MIB except the community strings, but do not
have write access. The AF-5X supports SNMP v1. The
default SNMP Community is public.

Contact

Specify the contact who should be notified in

case of emergency.

Location

Specify the physical location of the AF-5X.

If secure HTTPS mode is used,

specify the TCP/IP port of the Web Server.

Server Port

If HTTP mode is used, specify the TCP/IP port

of the Web Server.

Session Timeout

Specifies the maximum timeout before

the session expires. Once a session expires, you must log
in again using the username and password.

SSH access to the AF-5X; otherwise, an authorized key is
required.
