Pigeon Voice Server Host Monitor Settings - DatasmithSA/Pigeon-Voice-Training GitHub Wiki

Settings related to the Host Monitor Job that can be used to identify and diagnose network failures between Pigeon Voice Server and a host, such as a WMS. Can configured to ping a host (e.g. WMS), log the replies and trigger email alerts based on a ping failure threshold.

configured to ping a host (e.g. WMS), log the replies and trigger email alerts based on a ping failure threshold:

  • Enable Host Monitor Job: Whether or not the ping job is enabled to monitor a given host as being online or offline.
  • Host Monitor Job Execution Interval: How often (in milliseconds) the host monitor should execute the ping requests to monitor the specified host.
  • Ping Requests Per Job Execution: The number of ICMP echo messages (pings) to send every time the ping job executes at its interval. Maximum value is 10.
  • Enable Host Monitor Email Alerts: Whether or not to enable email alerts on ping failures at the specified failure threshold.
  • Host Monitor Email Alert Failure Threshold: The number of failed pings in a given host monitor execution that will trigger an emal alert. This value cannot exceed the 'Ping Requests Per Job Execution' value.
  • Ping Host: The host name or IP address that the host monitor should ping and log its status as being online or offline.
  • Ping Request TTL (time-to-live): The number of times that the ping data packets can be forwarded from router to router until it gets to the target host.
  • Ping Request Dont Fragment: Whether or not to prevent data being sent to host being fragmented.
  • Ping Request Timeout: Maximum number of milliseconds (after sending the echo message) to wait for the ICMP echo reply message.
  • Ping Request Data: Data to be sent with the ICMP echo message and returned in the ICMP echo reply message. A correctly-formed ping packet is typically 56 bytes in size, or 64 bytes when the Internet Protocol header is considered. Each character in the string is 1 byte. The default is 32 if no value supplied. The maximum Size is 65 527.
