Hello
I am actually testing a few nagios configs for my setup..
My question mostly concerns routers of the internet.
Some of my ISP's are blocking traceroute/pings on their net, causing the check_ping utility to fail.
Here is an exemple of what a ping to those servers return:
36 bytes from somerouter.someisp.com (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx): Communication prohibited by filter
Vr HL TOS Len ID Flg off TTL Pro cks Src Dst
4 5 00 5400 e788 0 0000 34 01 d323 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
At the moment, i only declare those routers without any default checks (in hosts.cfg), nor services checks (services.cfg)..
It results that on my statusmaps, those hosts are shown RED/FAULTY..
I also disabled the notification for those hosts so i'm not anoyed by messages telling me the hosts are down..
My question is the following, would their be a way to make those hosts i cannot ping nor access any open ports,
to be shown as GREEN/OK hosts on my statusmaps ?
Maybe another plugin that would recognize those messages, and make the routers status as OK ?
I know it's a little fancy but.. :)
Thank you for the help !
