    Configuring Smart Monitor Settings on an AP

    Before Smart Monitor is configured at the AP level, an AP uses the Smart Monitor configuration set at the venue level.

  5. Click Customize to override the venue-level settings.

    The section refreshes and Smart Monitor becomes an interactive field. By default, Smart Monitor is set to OFF.

  6. Toggle the Smart Monitor switch to ON and configure the following values:
    1. Heartbeat Interval defaults to 10 seconds. Enter a new timeout interval or use the arrows to select the new timeout interval in which heartbeat messages are sent. Valid values are from 5 through 60 seconds.
    2. Max Retries defaults to 3 retries. Enter a new value or use the arrows to select the new value for maximum number of retries before the gateway is considered unreachable. Valid values are 1 through 10.
  7. Click Apply.
