    Double check the ping

    Good time of day. Please tell me how you can put a double ping check on the server from different locations.

    The problem is this: If there is a ping from one location, but there is no ping from the second location to the server, the trigger will not be triggered.

    If there is no ping on both servers, the unavailability trigger will be triggered.

    I think you are asking how to get an item that represents a ping check from a perspective other than the Zabbix server (or proxy). I don't think there is a standard way to do this. My first thought would be a "slave" process on that this third server that checks ping and uses zabbix sender to update an item on the target host. That would be a manual setup or possibly something API driven depending on how many hosts you want to check this way.

    I've done something similar (testing only) for http using a web config that used a http proxy on a cloud server.
