If it is persistent, is this network device have routing issues back to the Nagios server, is this check going through a firewall? Can you do the following from the Nagios server:

Code: Select all

traceroute xx.xx.xx.xx
What type of network device(s) are these 4 IP's.

sorry I gave you the wrong command that these devices are using

$USER1$/check_icmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG1$,$ARG2$ -c $ARG3$,$ARG4$ -p 5

Just add the -t 30

Code: Select all

$USER1$/check_icmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG1$,$ARG2$ -c $ARG3$,$ARG4$ -p 5 -t 30

You could increase the timeout on the 1 device. Can you do a traceroute on the device from the XI server? Don't really need the output displayed here, just curious if this is an intermittent error, or a routing issue?
