CallerIP 1 and 2: CallerIP provides IP address filtering to insure only authorized personnel access the iBoot. You
can set two IP addresses or subnets that have authorization to access iBoot. If CallerIP 1 set is 0.0.0.0 or blank,
no address filtering will be used. To authorize an entire subdomain, set the CallerIP to xxx.xxx.xxx.255 (where
xxx.xxx.xxx is the subdomain you wish to authorize).
If AutoPing is used, any CallerIP settings must include the address to be
pinged, or no response will be received by iBoot.
Take caution when setting the CallerIP as this will limit your access to iBoot.
The only way to recover from being locked out by CallerIP is to power down
iBoot and access it within the first two minutes of powering iBoot back up.
CallerIP is ignored within the first two minutes of powering up the iBoot to
allow this time to recover.
Note: All of the TCP/IP Settings require a reboot of the
iBoot, After clicking Apply, also click the Reboot button
that will appear at the top of the page. The new settings
will not take effect until the unit is rebooted. Upon
Clicking Reboot, a page indicates the new URL for the
device.
7.3. Auto Ping
The AutoPing 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 pinged.
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.
Ping Address: Enter the IP address of the device to be pinged. If using CallerIP, this address must be allowed.
Ping Frequency: Enter 1 to 999 seconds. The ping will go out to the selected device this often.
Fail Counter: Enter 1-99 times the ping needs to fail consecutively before the selected action is taken. When the
fail count has been reached, the AutoPing action will be triggered.
