Yes.  For example, I have some routers that have an interface on our
private network and an interface on the public internet.  I would like
to be able to ping both of these interfaces, to make sure that the
internet connection is still working.  If I only ping the management
IP address (the private one) I can't verify that.  This would only
double the number of interfaces that would be pinged.


Also, after upgrading the VMware appliance to version 22.1, I have a
couple problems.  One is that if a device is "down," once it is back
up the device still shows a critical error on the dashboard.  If I
browse to the device and click on the "Events" tab, the top row is in
red and says <devicename> ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is up.  The row below
shows the event when the device was down.  Shouldn't this event clear?
 I receive a "CLEAR" alert, and the top row has a very high count of
the device being up, but it still shows as down on the dashboard and
device Status tab.


Also, I apologize for my responses not being threaded, I can't figure
out how to reply to keep the previous thread going.

Thanks!
