I would go with ken. Sensors are usually "very" hardened and setup in dmz's of their own where they cannot be reached by icmp. If i wanted to check if they're up and running i would send an e-mail out to the internet with a specific line of text. Make a user defined signature to look for that specific line and and contact you in whatever way you like if it succeeds/fails.

Create a unique custom signature for each sensor and then send a packet that violates that signature past each of your sensors every 6 hours. Config RealSecure to email an alert for each violation. You might as well use the alert feature rather than create your own.

Our management has tasked us with building a system to verify the "operational status" of our ISS RealSecure network sensors. Some type of Heartbeat system that every 6 hours would "Ping" all our network sensors and verify they are operational, and send us some type of "all is well" email ? Has anyone developed a system like this ??? We have 11 operational network sensors and I'm at a loss on how to do this, any and all help would be appreciated. thanks in advance.
