Looks like a P to me on the status displays.

As I recall if the check goes stale then Nagios will try to perform an
the active check that you defined. This is useful if you want
distributed monitoring to take the load off the central monitor but
want the central machine to take over if one of your distributed monitors
goes down.
If the reason you have a machine submitting passive checks is because
an intervening firewall won't let you do active checks then you don't
want active checks enabled unless you want misleading error mesages.
