I’ m using nagiosVersion 2.0 , on FreeBSD 6.0 , plugin version 1.4
I HAVE CHANGED THE CONFIG AS REQUESTED BUT I'M STILL GETTING THE DOWN STATUS
ON THE DEVICE.
CAN I HAVE MORE DETAILS ON THE: check_command: check_ping!30.0,1%!60.0,10%
For what I know 30 stands for the response time in milliseconds for nagios
to deliver a warning status and 1 is the packet loss.
60ms is the critical status.
define service{
use generic-service ; Name of
service template to use
host_name cisco_xxxx
service_description PING
is_volatile 0
check_period 24x7
max_check_attempts 6
normal_check_interval 2
retry_check_interval 1
contact_groups cpl
notification_options w,u,c,r
notification_interval 120
notification_period 24x7
check_command check_ping!30.0,1%!60.0,10%
Thanks.
Regards,
Grace

Also, in your check_ping command definition, you're requesting the host
respond within 30ms to be classed as up and OK.
This seems awfully quick - personally I request 1000ms (1 second) to
give it a fair amount of time to respond. If the host/router/whatever
is busy, it could take slightly longer than 30ms to reply, causing a
warning (or longer than 60ms to be 'down'.)
