Ping Polling
Ping Status
Displays the status of the Ping polling.
Note - The current firmware version only allows the Ping Status parameter to be
configured if Protocol parameter under Ping Parameters is set to OSI.
Ping Parameters
Displays basic information of the Ping module.
Note - Valid MIB Set values for the Timeout parameter should range from 1 to 60.
However, the current firmware version allows the user to enter values in the range
[-9223372036854775808 to -1, 1 to 9223372036854775807] inclusive. But
attempting to enter values greater than 65535 will cause the new value to be
converted to its equivalent wrap-around value; i.e., 65536 will become 0, 65537 will
become 1, and so on.
Note - Valid MIB Set values for the Time Interval parameter should range from 0 to
604800. However, the current firmware version allows the user to enter values in
the range [-9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807] inclusive. But
attempting to enter values greater than 999999999 will cause the new value to be
converted to its equivalent wrap-around value; i.e., 9999999990 will become
1410065398, 9999999991 will become 1410065399, and so on.
Note - Valid MIB Set values for the Number of Packets parameter should range from
1 to 4294967295. However, the current firmware version does not allow Device
Manager to display the correct value greater than 2147483647. Attempting to enter
values greater than 2147483647 will cause the new value to be converted to its
equivalent wrap-around value; i.e. 2147483648 will become -2147483648,
2147483649 will become -2147483647, and so on.
Note - The current firmware version only allows the Address parameter to be
configured if the Protocol parameter is set to OSI.
Note - Valid MIB Set values for the Data Pattern parameter should range from 1 to
4294967295. However, the current firmware version does not allow Device
Manager to display the correct value greater than 2147483647. Attempting to enter
values greater than 2147483647 will cause the new value to be converted to the
following values:
• 4286578688 - 4294934527: 8388608 - 16744447
• 4294934528 - 4294967167: 32768 - 65407
• 4294967168 - 4294967295: 128 - 255
Note - Device Manager does not handle objects of type OCTET STRING correctly.
As a result, the Address parameter will not be configurable and will display a
sequence of bytes in hexadecimal format instead of the actual destination of ping
packets.
