IP address - from where?

[Vernon Everett]

Hi all

Probably need some of the coder types to answer this one for me.
For the different network tests, where does Xymon get the IP address from?

In particular, ping, ssh, oratns, dns etc.
I think I read somewhere that for ping, Xymon does a host name lookup.
But is this the case for the other tests?

Thanks
