Configure system-wide monitoring and recovery behaviour.

Global settings

Field	Description
Interface prioritisation	Allows Health Monitor to change WAN route priority.
Metric shift	Amount applied to route metrics after a priority change.
Time between system polls	Interval between global Health Monitor checks.
Restart WAN interfaces	Restarts interfaces after the configured failed system polls.
Reboot router	Reboots the router after the configured failed system polls.
Method for choosing best WAN interface	Selects an interface using priority, response time, or both.

Confirm recovery thresholds with the deployment owner before enabling automatic router reboots.

Actions for failed interface tests

Configure these recovery actions for repeated interface-test failures:

• Restart the interface.
• Restart a mobile interface with another profile.
• Reset the interface.

Set a consecutive-failure threshold for each enabled action.

Actions for zero-packet interface tests

These settings apply when an interface reports no packets across consecutive tests. Configure restart, profile change, or reset actions only when required.

Ping and DNS requests

Field	Description
Ping timeout	Time to wait for a ping response.
Number unanswered before failure	Consecutive unanswered ping requests before a failed test.
DNS timeout	Time to wait for a DNS response.
Number unanswered before failure	Consecutive unanswered DNS requests before a failed test.

A single unanswered request does not necessarily indicate a failed connection.
