NetXMS Support Forum

Hi,

when netxms check a node throught icmp, how many icmp packets sent?
I've to check a node over a vpn tunnel, if i ping that node from my network, usually I lose some icmp packets.
So, my goal is similar to this:
i sent 5 icmp packet, if I lose all the packets then netxms have to consider the icmp status polling failed.
Is it possible to configure this?
If not, no problem, i write a simple script that do this task and i execute it throght netxms.

Thank you!

Hi!

Currently it's hard-coded value of 3 packets. I can make it configurable.

Best regards,

Ok, Great!

An info: how many packets of the 3 packets netxms have to lost for consider ICMP poll failed?

Giovanni

All of them. Logic here is that if any response is received, node is up. If you need to test quality of the link (for example, packet loss percentage), you can use PING sub-agent which can provide you such data.
