Item based off other Item

[Jmart]

I want to setup a trigger based off of two items. The first item is ICMP of the machine and the secdon is ICMP ping of the gateway. I created a custom item that will give me the gateway IP address but have not figured out a way to create another item that can use that ip address. Is this possible or do any of you have a better way to accomplish this.

First item:
Template:Testing
Name:GatewayIP
Key:linux.gateway.ip

Second Item:
Template:Testing
Name:GatewayPing
Key:icmpping[{Testing:GatewayIP.last(0)}]

I have tried several different combinations to get this working but cannot get it figured out.

A little more information:

First item:
Template:Testing
Name:GatewayIP
Key:linux.gateway.ip
Result = 10.10.1.1

Second Item:
Template:Testing
Name:GatewayPing
Key = icmpping[{Testing:GatewayIP Address.last(0)},1,20,24,50]
Result= fping failed: '{Testing:GatewayIP address not found

You can't use one item as source for another item in the way you're trying. You can solve it in a different way though:
Create a Low Level discovery that checks the gateway and use that to create the ping item.

THANK YOU..

Ok so i created a new custom item with this:

echo {\"data\":[{\"{#GATEWAYIP}\":\"$(route -n | perl -lane 'print $F[1]' | head -3 | tail -1 | grep -v "0.0.0.0" | grep -v "IP" | grep -v "Gateway")\"}]} | python -m json.tool


Then i created a discovery for it and a item.
now im waiting for the data poll and see if it works.
UPDATE:
Works perfect!
It would be easier if we can just use a item in another item but ohh well, i got to learn all about json.
