Title: RE: [smartBridges] aPPo stops responding--Remote Power Reset Capability???

We are planning to use Maxim/Dallas TINI cards in a backhaul net in which each node has at least two links. Each TINIs send pings to TINIs at the end of each link. The idea is that if echos are not received by a radio, the radio is rebooted. If all links are quiet, the entire node is burped, including the TINI and the local router (Soekris 4801, OBSD). The node burp trigger will be implemented as a HW watchdog. Each TINI also monitors the node's DC UPS. (Some pingers and monitors are running now; implementation of the OA scheme awaits more retrofits.)   Bill ----- Original Message ----- From: The Wirefree Network To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 14 August, 2003 16:21 Subject: [smartBridges] OT- Remote Power Reset Capability??? I started this quest a LONG time ago.  When it comes to head-end stations and repeater stations�we all NEED a way to do remote power reset (reboot) in the event a unit is locked up�be it the aPPo or an inline switch or a server or maybe even your broadband router.  So�having dial-in access is a must for me.  I cant DEPEND on IP to get the job done.   So�I am still looking.   Here is what I have found so far:   http://www.kvms.com/remote_reboot_switches.asp   http://www.shop-marketplace.com/remote.html   http://www.cpscom.com/reboot.htm   � this one looks very promising!!       Anyone using any of these or have an opinion??   Sully   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of phantam Sent: Tuesday, May 20, 2003 7:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] aPPo stops responding--Remote Power Reset Capability???   Guys it's the year 2003 EBAY!!!!!!!! We just got 2 APC 3000's with SNMP management and also the APC MASTERSWITCH for really good price 400$ for the masterswitch it is AWESOME we are putting thema t all our repeaters ALL OF THEM.

I hate to keep beating up SB about this, but why not use the "Remote Reset Feature." http://www.smartbridges.com/products/wireless/powershot .php :) Jason -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Darkshot Sent: Tuesday, May 20, 2003 5:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Mark P.

The first generation required a modem line but the later ones (early 90's) would allow you to address power sockets through IP addressing and switch 'em on and off. We used 'em a lot on old Xenix machines back in the dark ages.... I remember that they were not cheap, but one on a tower holding, say, 5-6 APPos might be worth the effort- if you can still find 'em.
