Ok I am not getting any outputs when running those commands. Right now Im trying to see if it could be a possible firewall problem or switch problem. Thanks for your help! -Andrew
View ArticleRe: IP address goes up and down
ok!! if not, i think you can run zencommand in debug mode to see which command is using to ping devices and output.. zencommand run -v 10
View ArticleRe: IP address goes up and down
Yea thats how I thought it might be a firewall problem. I ran "zenping run -v10" and some packets were timing out at certain points. zenping is using ICMP.
View ArticleRe: IP address goes up and down
Oh ok! So might need to add and exception for your zenoss server at your firewall. Perhaps it´s tearing down some connection because of a "possible threat".
