ICMP only hosts

[nicolasfo]

Hello,
I have some hosts I only apply ICMP Ping template.
I create on this hosts a Zabbix agent interface, set the host IP and it works.

The problems are :
- In Data Collection > Hosts, the concerned hosts don't pass to green. It's OK, the agent isn't reachable.
- In the dashboard, these hosts are returned as status "Unknown".

How could I do to make the hosts appears in green in some way in "Hosts" and to pass these hosts in "Avaibale" if the ping is OK and unavailable if the ping isn't OK, but no more in "Unknown" ?

Thanks
N

You can't. There is no "ICMP" interface type so ICMP items cannot satisfy the "availability" of those interfaces.
You could put your ICMP-only hosts in a group and not include that in the filter for the dashboard widget.
