I have a "Standalone" template added to several hosts I'm monitoring....
{HOSTNAME} is filled with the name of the server which is behind a router....
When I add this template I can only say, for instance, "{HOSTNAME} doesn't respond on ping", when in fact it's the router which is not responding on a ping.
I wanted to use this syntax, but it didn't work
I can of course make a seperate HOST for the router connection, but this takes the beauty of using templates away...
I understand why I can't use most of the variables as mentioned here in column 8, but I would really like {IPADDRESS},{HOST.CONN} and {DNS}

Could this be added to generate better readable messages?
