Getting nonstop alerts for hosts that are up

[Nashua77]

We have over 500 devices being monitored but are seeing some of them constantly sending alerts for ping loss when they are actually still up and pingable. They are all Comnet switches. it doesn't appear to be affecting other hosts. We're using tcp ping with 400 as the ping timeout value and 3 as the ping retry count. We'll et a message that a host is down and then maybe ten minutes or two hours later get the message that it's recovered from the down state.

How can this be addressed?

It sounds like you have the monitor plug-in installed which will notify you if ping times exceed a certain threshold. Increase that threshold.
