Device status unknown until add some graphs

[zmeh]

Hi

I have problem when i create device status is unknown until I create some graphs.
What I want is to some devices monitoring status (up, down) and availability without creating any graphs.

I'm using Cacti 0.8.7c with monitor plugin.
Sorry for my English

Regards.

Set host detection to PING instead of SNMP

? Host Availability Settings -> icmp ping ?
I set this but doesn't work like this, on device page i see icmp ping time or time out but until i create some graphs host status is unknown.

On device "Downed Device Detection" is set to "Ping", doesn't work.
I try "ping or snmp" too. After one hour device is still unknown, when i add some graph after couple minutes status was updated properly.
