to do this with the standard Xymon functions. All you need to do is write
a test that will ping at one second intervals and record the results.
then, at the end of your test you can scan the results and send a consolidated
message to Xymon for display.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

to find that many pings are dropped or delayed (deferred) due to normal network
activity -- and that this is not a problem.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
