Settings under "Functions" > "Monitoring."

Similar to a watchdog, this feature allows you to monitor remote IP devices, such as routers or servers. By regularly sending a ping command, you can determine whether the device is still responding and, if necessary, restart it.

To create a new monitoring action, click the "+" button.
