Re: [nv-l] ICMP Polling Intervals

["Usman Taokeer" <usman.taokeer@gmail.com>]

Jane, 

That i know, here is what i want to do. Some of the nodes (non-snmp) i want to ping every 10 Minutes. for status checking, these nodes are acutally servers that do not have SNMP configured. In netview i havent seen any polling option for ICMP nodes, that you have answered netview does it by default, but how can i configure netview to 'PING' specific nodes every say 10mins. 

Plus we are facing another problem, netview shows Nodes as DOWN on the IP Map when i ping these nodes they are not down, it just turns back to GREEN. How do u suggest we handle this! I searched the archives, ppl have created custome scripts, but i dont want to use any scripts, is there any other option.

Regards,

Usman

You will get ping (ICMP) polling by default.  If you have specified a
range for SNMP polling (using $ in netmon.seed) and then you want a
machine from that range ping-polled, then put an entry for this box with
^ to swap back to ICMP-polling.
Cheers,
Jane
