You need to have ICMP open. It is part BBNET tests

Hi All,

I have a couple of linux servers which are behind a firewall and needs
to be monitored. I have allowed the port 1984 for flow of data from the
client servers to the hobbit server, and i get all the data fine.

However, I do not get to see a green for "conn", all i see is a '-'.
This i typically understand is the hobbitping or the fping utility. Do
these utilities work along with bbtest-net or individually? And if Yes,
which ports needs to be allowed and from where to where..?
If not, which port does hobbitping or fping use?

At this point the firewall is opened for normal ping i.e, hobbit server
can ping the linux clients.

Quick info on my network.

Hobbit server ip - 192.168.50.100 <http://192.168.50.100/> 
Other Linux/Unix servers are in the 192.168.50. <http://192.168.50./> *
network.
Linux servers behind the firewall, have a 10.* ip assigned, which at the
firewall is natted to a 192.168.50. <http://192.168.50./> * ip. (these
are typically the DMZ servers)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Sanu
