Hi Marcel
On top of what Tim and Brian already said, you can launch Ping tests from either a centralised location or from different zones. You can deploy as many 'appliances' as you need to reach those devices you want to ping locally, or use a single appliance to monitor everything from a single place. These appliances can be physical, virtual or in your private cloud.
One of the great features of SevOne is how different time zones and locations are handled. You can define the time zone and working hours of each device, and you can also choose which time zone you want to use when displaying the data on a report.
Also you can use different ping frequencies from up to 1 second to x minutes to all the devices or different frequencies to different devices.
And regarding alerting, there are lots of options to configure the alert you need, including triggering the alert after x times, but also based on normal behaviour.
Please let me know if this does not make sense or if you need further assistance on this topic.

Subject: SevOne as the ping monitoring solution for host availability?
Hi, I understand that SevOne is capable of monitoring complex Network environments, but my requirement is simpler: Is it possible to implement SevOne to perform host availability tests (ICMP ping up/down) to thousands of hosts on different network zones and locations?
If yes, which components will I have to deploy as part of SevOne infra? Do we have something like Points of Presence or endpoints that will be responsible for running the ping tests?
Can I customize the timeout interval? Can I configure it to only generate an alert after X occurrences?
Could someone please provide some guidance on how to implement a solution like this using SevOne product?
Thank you
