By default, how often does a ProxySG send a heartbeat?

A ProxySG device is designed to maintain communication and monitor its status through a feature known as "heartbeat." By default, this heartbeat signal is transmitted every 24 hours. This interval is set to ensure that network administrators are regularly informed of the status of the ProxySG device, allowing for timely identification of any issues or outages.

The 24-hour default heartbeat helps balance the need for frequent status updates without overwhelming the network and management system with too much traffic. This setting is particularly useful in environments where the ProxySG plays a crucial role in traffic management and security, ensuring that it is consistently checked and confirmed operational within a reliable timeframe.
