Sleeping and Waking Forwarders
Although we recommend leaving Stairwell running as much as possible, there are occasions where you may want to pause the Stairwell forwarder, we call this Sleep Mode. In the sleep mode, forwarders will not record or report any sightings or take any other action other than a lightweight check for when they should wake back up. This feature is available in the following forwarder versions.
OS | Version Supported |
---|---|
Windows | v1.6.2 or later |
Linux | v2.4.0 or later |
Mac | v1.6.2 or later |
