Hi to all.
I'm monitoring a router for uptime with icmpping to know when the connection goes down.
The problem is sometimes zabbix reports as down when the router logs says it's ok.
What I want to ask is:
In accordance with rfc4560 the ping should return within 3 seconds or it will send a timeout value.
And reading the source (think is it) at cvs Zabbix won't check this timeout as UNKNOWN instead of ON. as it does now.
I think the history of downtimes (failed pings) is not to trust because if the network has a lot of congestion the ping value will exceed the 3 seconds of timeout.
This case could be true ?
Thanks in advance !
