[xymon] Brief red alarms

[Tim McCloskey]

You've probably already done the obvious....  First, I'd make sure that all the hosts/switch ports have proper media settings (speed/duplex/autoneg or not).  While it may sound odd (for your new IP network) I would also make sure that all of the arp cache for the environment gets flushed. 

What interval do you have in bbtest-net? 
server/etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg
[bbnet]
        ENVFILE server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
        NEEDS hobbitd
        CMD bbtest-net --report --ping --checkresponse
        LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-network.log
        INTERVAL 5m

For what its worth:

^C
--- 10.1.0.73 ping statistics ---
528 packets transmitted, 528 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.621/2.458/52.160/5.032 ms


Any thoughts?
