Title: ICMP PING
Post by: pedrong on March 03, 2013, 07:15:59 AM
Hi All,

I configured a node to do ping to another server by using icmp.ping("www.xyz.com") or icmp.ping(www.xyz.com). The value i got every time is 10000.

How to interpret the value? Anything wrong?

Thanks!

Pedro

Value 10000 means "unreachable".

Best regards,
Victor

hi Victor, I found that if I use ip address, it works but doesn't work for domain name. I can do both ip address and domain ping in DOS prompt of the server. Is it normal? thanks!

Most likely that means that agent cannot resolve host name for some reason. Try Icmp.Ping(localhost) - it should work. Also, what NetXMS agent version you have? Ping by DNS names only supported in 1.2.6.

Best regards,
Victor
