We stumbled onto a tool called "Demarc" that allows you to set up the
ability to monitor servers and workstations so I don't see why it would not
work on monitoring a RS Sensor.  We use it for a variety of our systems and
you can set up an e-mail alert to notify the SA if a machine goes down or
stops responding to pings or whatever protocol you want to check for.

Their website is http://www.demarc.org and the tool is free.  Their own info
describes it as:
Overview
Demarc Security is proud to offer PureSecure, an all-inclusive network
monitoring solution that allows you to monitor an entire network of servers
from one powerful web interface.

Instead of having one program perform file integrity checks, another program
monitoring the connectivity and health of your network, and yet another
monitoring your network for intrusion detection attempts, Demarc PureSecure
combines all these services into one powerful client/server program. Not
only can you monitor the status of the different machines in your network,
but you can also respond to changes in your network all from one centralized
location

Hello,
I'm looking for a solution to an interesting problem. 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.
