Setting Default Description
Attempt to ping
devices that
were
unreachable
via SNMP
Yes  When Yes is selected, AirWave attempts to ping the AP device.
 Select No if performance is affected in negative fashion by this function. If a large number
of APs are unreachable by ICMP, likely to occur where there is in excess of 100 APs, the
timeouts start to impede network performance.
NOTE: If ICMP is disabled on the network, select No to avoid the performance penalty caused
by numerous ping requests.
