I’m trying to remotely debug a bizarre networking problem and I need to determine the reason why our PepLink router reboots.
The log files show something like this each morning at 6am:
[TABLE=“class: stat_table, width: 761”]
[TR=“class: zb2, bgcolor: #E6E6E6”]
Mar 23 06:05:02
WAN: WAN 1 connected (x.x.x.x)
[/TR]
[TR=“class: zb1”]
Mar 23 06:04:55
WAN: WAN 1 disconnected (No cable detected)
[/TR]
[TR=“class: zb2, bgcolor: #E6E6E6”]
Mar 23 06:04:41
WAN: WAN 1 connected (x.x.x.x)
[/TR]
[TR=“class: zb1”]

System: Time synchronization successful
[/TR]
[TR=“class: zb2, bgcolor: #E1F1FF”]
Mar 23 06:03:10
WAN: WAN 2 connected (x.x.x.x)
[/TR]
[TR=“class: zb1”]
Mar 23 06:02:49
System: Started up (6.3.0 build 2189)
[/TR]
[/TABLE]
My theory is that our UPS is failing / going bad and dropping power to our networking stack around 6am each day, but I’m not sure.
Is there any way, by looking at the PepLink log files, whether the reboot was caused by power failure, vs. a manual reboot, vs. a crash of the router software?
