Use "delayred=conn:15" - that will make the "conn" status stay green 
until a red status has been reported for 15 minutes. It won't go yellow 
initially, but at least you won't have the alarms going off.

Note: "delayred" was introduced in the 4.3.5 release. Prior to that, you 
could use the "bad" flag to achieve the same. See the hosts.cfg man-page 
for details.
