icmpping params

[bert.v]

Is it possible to set custom icmpping params for a host? I'm monitoring several hosts where the default values are fine, but now I would like to monitor another host with customized values.

The manual states the following :
icmpping[<target>,<packets>,<interval>,<size>,<timeout>]

So for this particular host I thought I could bypass the default values by creating a simple check item with a key like:

icmpping[,10,200,500,1000]

So I would like to ping a host every 200 millis 10 times with a packet size of 500 bytes and a timeout of 1 sec.

But this doesn't work
Anybody an idea if this is possible?

Check your fping programm on zabbix_server, programm is supported this options and works correctly?

you can add the icmping check in the host.

you can add the icmping check item in the host. Set your customized value in different host item not template.
