@LarryFahnoe said in Watchdog for 4200?:
Wondering if there is a BIOS or other form of watchdog available that might help in a situation like this?
"Pulling the plug" out of a system like that is very bad.
"pfSense, actually the device you are using, is like your phone or PC (MAC) : smash the reste button, or remove the power a couple of time, and it will not boot anymore, you might even be good for a re install if your not a "partition expert".
Still, your 4200 (pfSense plus) is probably using the ZFS file system which is pretty resilient.
Your 4200 is probably waiting with some message on the command line (console) and I get it : that one needs a hands-on access - so 😠

That's probably the SSH client noticing that the system you are connected to is broadcasting 'shut down' to all processes, so also the SSH server.
