    Zabbix 1.5.3 ICMP Discovery

    Hi,

    I've installed the 1.5.3 and I'm trying to use the ICMP discovery, but that doesn't work. No hosts are discovered, it seems to me that no hosts are even checked.

    Discovery: ICMP check for an IP-range of 50 IPs (yes, there are some pingable!), with a delay of 60 seconds.
    Action: for Host-up and check-type=icmp, add hosts to a group and link with a template.

    The Zabbix Server doesn't log anything about discovery, there's nothing to be found under "Monitoring->Discovery" or "Monitoring->Latest Data".

    Needless to say, both the Discovery and the Action rules are active ) When I try using Auto-Discovery for a certain service (SSH, for example), it works.

    We have a customer which is very interested into this new ICMP Auto-Discovery feature. Any idea when it'll work?

    Thanks,
    Bogdan

    ICMP based auto-discovery requires external binary fping installed.
