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

The TINIs are simple to use. All Java, and many support classes are built in.   Bill ----- Original Message ----- From: The Wirefree Network To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 14 August, 2003 16:57 Subject: RE: [smartBridges] OT- Remote Power Reset Capability??? Wheww�.now that sounds complicated!  Thorough�but complicated.    So you are saying that each one of your WiPoPs has a redundant (Backup) line??  If so, that is just too costly for us small fries.   I do like the PING option.  I had thought about that myself.  I was trying to use a program called Alchemy Network Scanner Pro to ping all my devices.  Should one go down, you can set it to page, phone, email, etc.  It works fine until I close the program.  It is running as a service and should be working fine�but doesn�t.  I then try to open up my saved profile within Alchemy, and all my info is gone.  Done it 3 times now.   So�I am looking for a decent program to do this as well???  Ping then alert.   Sully   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bill Clark Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2003 3:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [smartBridges] OT- 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
