I think that in almost all cases, this is going to be more than a simple ping. Take a simple case of a router. You might think that if it's pingable, it's up and working, if not it's down. However, if you're looking to provide the best service to your clients you're also going to be concerned with CPU utilization on that router, memory use, interface errors/status, etc... -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
