I see this question has been asked on the list a few times, but I
haven't quite gotten the complete answers from any of the old threads...
so here goes:

I see that I get ping response time with my current setup. I appear to
be using fping already, so that recommendation is covered. The trouble
is, the data appears to be captured as a graph is being assembled using
it. Is there really no way to use this data for alerting as it stands
now? It appears as if more than 10ms in my environment represents a
problem and that setting it at 10 would probably yield no false alarms,
but I can see no way to turn red for any value other than a failed
ping/dropped packets.

Thanks for any info you can pass along.
