Configuration

  • Host

    Caution
    		 For a HTTP check, use a valid and complete URL, like http(s)://www.abc.com.

  • Mode
    The check mode:

    Mode Description

    Ping

    Send an ICMP Echo Request packet to the host to test the reachability.
    Ping has a timeout of 10 seconds.

    HTTP Get
