Watchdog Features
Overview
To detect internal problems and recover from unanticipated inputs, the
Management Card uses internal, system-wide watchdog mechanisms.
When it restarts to recover from an internal problem, a System: Warmstart
event is recorded in the Event Log.
Network interface watchdog mechanism
The Management Card implements internal watchdog mechanisms to
protect itself from becoming inaccessible over the network. For example, if
the Management Card does not receive any network traffic for 9.5 minutes
(either direct traffic, such as SNMP, or broadcast traffic, such as an Address
Resolution Protocol [ARP] request), it assumes that there is a problem with
its network interface and restarts.
