Hi Ibrah,

On the one hand, you could install a Remote Probe on these servers and add HTTP sensors to this Probe. The Remote Probe will connect to your Core Server over the MPLS line and the Remote Probe will send the HTTP request directly to the websites. This would monitor the MPLS connection and the internet connectivity of both servers.

On the other hand, if you can send WMI commend to those servers, you can use the WMI Remote Ping, or SSH Remote Ping to ping a server in the WAN.

Best regards, Felix
