Finding device up or down

Hi,

 

 

I am new to iControl API. I have used iControl.Interfaces(ipAddress,username,password) to connect with device.

 

It takes more than 3 minutes to return the response, if the device is down,

 

 

 

can anyone help me how to find the particular device is up or down with the less time of processing.

 

thanks in advance

    This should be a transport timeout setting. I'm not sure how to do this with this particular library, but I think that is what you're after...

    Thanks to reply guys,

     

     

    I don't want to set timer, because we can't make sure responding time of the device(server), depending upon the traffic in the network, responding time will be varying.

     

     

    So I want check wheather the device(server) is reachable or not (up or down),in the sense currently the device(server) is running or not.

     

     

    Thanks,
