Hi,

Is it possible, for an existing equipement, with one Ping sensor tied to the IP of the equipement, to add a second Ping Sensor, for a second IP, but for the same equipement objet (not adding an equipement with the second IP).

The goal : one router with 2 publics IP, and 2 paths to reach the router. Need to compare the availability of the 2 paths, from the ICMP "point of view". Of course, we have the SNMP sensor of the 2 interfaces, but not the same as Ping.

Browsing the KB with "PING" keyword doesn't give answer, except a multiping utility, but it looks like an external tool (?).

Thanks.

I'm afraid, since the Ping sensor uses the IP defined for the overlying device, that this would only be possible by adding a second device. Sorry.
