As I thought I understood it, when a device on a map misses X number of pings (logging threshold), Whats Up will highlight the device name in black. The subnet will also then have a black highlight as well.
I recently upgraded to version 8.01 from version 8. I have noticed a change in this alerting mechanism. I have a fairly large network, with 170 subnets, comprising well over 1000 devices. Within a hour each of these subnets will have a black highlight. Of course I then need to acknowledge this information. This is very different then with version 8, where it was very logical and manageable. When I look at the status of a device there are no issues other than a missed ping. With logging thresholds are set at 4, should this even, go to this status? Has anyone else seen this behavior change? Can someone perhaps explain this process, a little better?
