Ping Monitor
With the Ping Monitor you can monitor one or multiple hosts with ICMP echo requests to determine if the specific host is reachable.
Example inputs:
| Host | Description |
|---|---|
10.0.0.1 | Single IP address (10.0.0.1) |
10.0.0.100 - 10.0.0.199 | All IP addresses in a given range (10.0.0.100, 10.0.0.101, ..., 10.0.0.199) |
10.0.0.0/23 | All IP addresses in a subnet (10.0.0.0, ..., 10.0.1.255) |
10.0.0.0/255.255.254.0 | All IP addresses in a subnet (10.0.0.0, ..., 10.0.1.255) |
10.0.[0-9,20].[1-2] | Multipe IP address like (10.0.0.1, 10.0.0.2, 10.0.1.1, ...,10.0.9.2, 10.0.20.1) |
borntoberoot.net | Single IP address resolved from a host (10.0.0.1) |
borntoberoot.net/24 | All IP addresses in a subnet resolved from a host (10.0.0.0, ..., 10.0.0.255) |
borntoberoot.net/255.255.255.0 | All IP addresses in a subnet resolved from a host (10.0.0.0, ..., 10.0.0.255) |
Multiple inputs can be combined with a semicolon (;).
Example: 10.0.0.0/24; 10.0.[10-20]1
