Is this doing a ping or ICMP check? Does the host allow ICMP? You may need to check the dost differently, you can change the check command used in Configure -> CCM -> Host -> Modify

Ok, the URL monitoring wizard will make the host try to connect via http to the root.

You can change the check command to check-host-alive for example to do a basic ping check instead if the default doesn't work on this host.
