<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Thank you for all the help in the past with the questions
I've had. All is working well and I have good confidence in my
implementation of this tool. However since I am a convert from BigBrother (Free
version) there is a difference that I hope we can find a way to emulate.</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">The background:</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">We have approx 60 locations sitting out in the US
connecting back to HQ via commodity DSL using VPN. Naturally we have some
packet loss on those connections periodically, especially when printing within
Citrix or when it is busy with data going back and forth.</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">The issue:</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">What used to happen with BB is that when there was a skipped
ping out of 3 an orange condition would trigger not red.</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">What happens with Hobbit is that now I never get a yellow
but rather get a RED and then a Green within seconds of each other instead of a
yellow.</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Here is the "FPING" line from my server config:</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">FPING="$BBHOME/bin/hobbitping --max-pps=10000000 <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">--responses=5</span></b>"</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">I was had changed this "<b><span style="font-weight: bold;">--responses=5"</span></b> in hopes that it would produce the same
results but it does not.</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">And I do ping my sites every minute no matter what to test
them. Overall the BBtest statistics report that I have a total of 83 host
pinged and the most time it ever took for "Time Total" on the graph
is approx 18 seconds and that happened once. Most times it is approx 5 seconds.</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Is there a set of switches or some other way to get the same
behavior from Hobbit that I had with BB.</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Thank You for all the help in the past and thank you in
advance! </span></font></p>
