Editor's review

This is a software tool that can help monitor connections automatically with hosts on the local net as well as the wider Internet.

Ping Monitor is an automatic tool for tracking connections with hosts locally as well as distant ones on the Internet. The way the connection status is determined is to send ping messages to the specified host and analyze the responses by the host to the ping request. Should the ping request fail a defined number of times one after the other, the application will report a connection failure. This monitor can be working all the time. Connection states and connection status data is present on the interface. The statistics that are presented include parameters for every host such as monitoring time, uptime percentage, total number of detected outages, percent of passed pings and ping statistics. One can easily evaluate the quality and the stability of the connection. The interface presents the data quite neatly.

With a lot of information available on the interface, you will need to spend some familiarization time to be able to track the data of interest easily. The application also offers extended notifications and a reporting functionality. The tool can be configured to report connection loss, restoration, etc. as system tray notifications or as emails to relevant people. If required custom handlers also can be set up. These get executed when a particular event happens and you could configure any command or executable file with optional command-line parameters. Special terminate actions can be set up. For example if all the connections are lost one could arrange to make shutdown, reboot, hibernate and log-off operations on the computer where Ping Monitor is working. This is quite a useful tool.

Publisher's description

Ping Monitor is an automatic tool for tracking connections with hosts, located in the local network and Internet. It detects connections statuses by sending regular pings and analyzing responses. If pings to host are failed a defined number of times in a row, application detects and reports a connection outage.
Ping Monitor can work in 24/7 mode to track the connections states and calculate connections statistics, which is reported on the main screen. Displayed parameters for every host include monitoring time, uptime percentage, total number of detected outages, percent of passed pings and ping statistics. This information can be used to evaluate the quality and stability of the connection.
In addition to monitoring features, Ping Monitor offers an extended notifications and reporting functionality. You can configure the application to report connection lost, restore events and ping statistics as messages in a System Tray area or to send correspondent notifications by e-mail.
If required, you can extend functionality of the application and setup custom event handlers for execution on connections lost and restore events. Any command or executable file with optional command-line parameters can be defined as the event handler. Also it's possible to activate special terminate actions when connections to all monitored hosts are lost or cannot be retrieved during defined period of time. This feature allows you to make shutdown, reboot, hibernate and logoff operations on computer where Ping Monitor is launched.
