I'm trying to monitor a server with a number of interfaces/Ips, and running
into a problem with zenstatus. Let's say the host's main IP is 10.1.1.1, and
that's the device's IP within Zenoss. Now let's also say that it's running
http on 10.1.2.4, and smtp on 10.1.3.5. I wish to monitor all of those. As
it is now, I only have the main IP in zenoss as a device. If I enable
monitoring of IPServices for http and smtp, I get failures on those ports.

For http specifically, I see the following line in the IPServices panel:
    http       tcp      80       10.1.2.4      World Wide Web HTTP    (RED)

When I do tcpdumps on it, I see that zenstatus is using the device's
hostname to connect to the port, rather than the IP listed. This happens
across the board in situations like this for me. Ips of 127.0.0.1 don't let
you monitor, so I know it uses the IP for something. Why doesn't it use it
for the actuall tcp connection?
