Monitor Internet Availability in distant locations

[lofti_213]

Hello,
How can i monitor internet availability in my remote locations please?

I am trying to provide a mean to check Internet availability for my remote users. So I created a node with IP address of my ISP gateway. But, the state does not change, even if the ping is OK.

All i want to do, is to say if the remote locations of my company have internet connections or not.

Thanks in advance.

Hello, I just want to tell you that I have found a temporary workaround by activating ping.nsm agent in that remote server (suposed to tell if there's internet connectivity or not for that location) and created a DCI icmp.ping(www.google.com) and configured thresholds to tell if it is ok or not.

Just another question, how can i set alarms to auto-resolve?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

your initial configuration is correct, seems to be a bug in a server. What version you are using?

As for alarms auto-resolve, you should set alarm key when create alarm, and use "resolve alarm" or "terminate alarm" action when processing recovery event with matching key. You can use default rules for node down/node up as an example.

Best regards,
Victor
