Hi,
i'm setting up monitoring system on smokeping basis.
It uses programm fping to ping many hosts. It has parameter -i which sets delay between pings.
If i ping multiple hosts (switches) in our LAN, it works good.
If i ping hosts behind Astaro (internet or switches behind Astaro-VPN tunnel) i get timeouts.
Example pinging google,yahoo,heise,microsoft:
same example with i=40
Results are always the same, i mean this pattern (2 available 1 off 1 available in 2nd example) persists over many tests.
I already tried with -C50, some hosts are 100% available, some 100% down.
But this pattern depends from setted -i parameter.
I switched off "Firewall forwards Pings" in firewall settings and made a rule #1 "allow pings, logged".
in Live Log i see successful pings, but not any drops.
I think, Astaro blocks too frequently pings somehow. IPS is off. Any idea what can it be? Some hidden default setting somewhere?
Can somebody please make similar tests?
Thanks in advance
