Ping additional IP addresses by index - Cannot select them for viewing

General
1

Hello,

We’re monitoring some remote systems through different WAN links from our HQ.
We have set up 3 IP addresses (normal + 2 additional) for each remote system and then created a “Check hosts with PING (ICMP Echo Request)” rule, with the idea that:

  • WAN1=ping normal IP,
  • WAN2=ping index #1 additional IP
  • WAN3=ping index #2 additional IP

Pinging works fine, but I’ve then created a dashboard with the overall status or the WAN links and the problem I’m facing is that I want to have distinct columns for each one of the WAN links, but there is no option in the drop down menu (see screenshot below):

checkmk-additional ip

I can only select primary, additional, and either all IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, but no option to display a specific additional IP by index.

Anyone with any tips/hacks or ideas on how to achieve this?

Thanks in advance,
Pavlos

I think you need to create a custom graph
I assume it’s the service [PING all IPv4 Addresses] you are using?

Something like this (I just picked random “IPs” that was google.de/fr

Thanks for the response, unfortunately I am not interested in adding a graph but a service status only.
