Blog AirLive MEAF: Device Guard Switch, Your Smart Technician

AirLive announces an upgrade on POE-GSH2004L-370 with Device Guard. Device Guard functions as your smart technician, which saves your money and time for a real one. Conventionally, to take a look at the crashed cameras installed in hard-to-reach places or to sort through switch’s IPs for rebooting in a complicated topology, we call out to technicians for help. However, technicians charge you fees every time they come to examine the devices. It also takes time to complete a comprehensive examination. Device Guard thus hits the market as an excellent substitute. It monitors the status of IP cameras and Access Points on a regular basis, and automatically reboots the crashed ones. That greatly reduces your expense and time to have the devices in their working status again. What’s better, for those who have purchased POE-GSH2004L-370, it is free to upgrade the switch with Device Guard function. Cost-effective and time-saving, this virtual technician will be of immense help in your camera installation.

Device Guard monitors the status of the devices by Guard IP or Guard Packet. With them, you may start to enjoy the service from your own superb technician!

– Guard IP means that the switch will ping the IP addresses of cameras or Access Points to examine whether they are alive. If they are alive, they will respond to the switch. If there is no response, after more unsuccessful tries, the switch will reboot the cameras or Access Points.

– Guard Packet relies on the streaming of data to identify if there is any device crashing. When there is no packet from the IP cameras or Access Points, it is likely that the devices do not work. The switch will then reboot the crashed devices to make them back in the working status.
