To set the Keepalive using Wireless ACE, select Other from the menu on the left.
FIGURE 1. Wireless ACE: Keepalive Configuration
*IPPING sets the interval, in minutes, you want Keepalive to test the network connection. To disable Keepalive, set *IPPING to 0 (default setting).
Note: 15 minutes is the minimum time which can be set for Kee- palive.
*IPPINGADDR sets the IP address you want to use for the test. If *PPIN- GADDR is left blank or is set to an invalid IP address (i.e. an IP which is unreachable or one which is not a valid IP address), the modem will reset itself on a regular interval.
Data usage using Keepalive
When using Keepalive, be aware that a ping moves approximately 66 bytes of data over the network and is billable by the carrier. The following *IPPING settings will incur approximate monthly data usage in addition to any other data usage:
15 minutes | 400k / month |
30 minutes | 200k / month |
60 minutes | 100k / month |
120 minutes | 50k / month |
