Ping Monitor is an advanced network surveillance tool designed to significantly improve host and service availability monitoring. Utilizing automatic ICMP pings, it not only checks the up/down status of network hosts but also monitors port activities essential for maintaining service uptime, including SMTP, HTTP, and IMAP. This tool provides administrators with valuable insights into connection quality, offering real-time analytics on packet loss, latency, and jitter. Unlike traditional monitoring solutions, Ping Monitor introduces a unique feature for keyword monitoring, allowing seamless oversight of specific content across various websites.
Powered by the robust MongoDB database, Ping Monitor ensures the rapid processing and storage of vast amounts of monitoring data. It stands out by immediately alerting users through email notifications upon detecting changes in host state, connection quality, port status, or the presence of specified keywords on a website.
Functionality-wise, Ping Monitor operates on a sophisticated multi-threaded engine that sends continuous ICMP echo requests to multiple hosts simultaneously. It meticulously analyzes the replies, recording the round-trip time of successful pings. If multiple pings fail consecutively, it identifies a connection interruption, updates the host's status to "down," and promptly issues notifications. more
