This feature requires ICMP access to the Customer Device. Customer is responsible for working with Single Point Global to ensure that Customer Device responds to ICMP packets.

This feature includes a single up/down test. Additional tests may be available at additional cost.

(c) Server and Network Usage Reporting. Device utilization reports are made available to Customer in the form of a graph. This network utilization graph will be updated based on SNMP polling of the Ethernet switch port directly attached to the Customer Device.
