Re: [Nagios-users] check ping unusual issue
I think I have found the problem, Please see the following theread http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.nagios.plugins.devel/6738 On Wed, Aug 19, 2009 at 9:54 AM, shadih rahman shadhi...@gmail.com wrote: I am using nagios-3.0.6 and nagios plugins-1.4.13 As suggested I have read the check_ping man page. However having critical warning is not the cause of the problem. We chose to keep both warning and critical same because we want all ping issues to become critical. Below is an example like you suggested. The question is how can you have 75% packet loss, when you are sending one packet. Please advise on this.

Re: [Nagios-users] check ping unusual issue
please read http://nagiosplugins.org/man/check_ping syntax is -w rta,pl -c rta,pl rta==round trip average, pl = packet lost of course warning should be less than critical. You have all same.. try : -w 200.0 30 -c 300.0, 40 Nice regards, 2009/8/18 shadih rahman shadhi...@gmail.com: All, My check ping result is not making sense.
