From the bb-hosts man page:

       conn={best,|worst,}IP1[,IP2...]
              This adds additional IP-adresses that are pinged  during the nor-
              mal "conn" test. So the normal "conn" test must be  enabled  (the
              default)  before this tag has any effect. The IP- adresses listed
              here are pinged in addition to the main IP-address.

              When multiple IP's are pinged, you can choose if ALL   IP's  must
              respond  (the  "worst"  method), or AT LEAST one IP  must respond
              (the "best" setting). All of the IP's are reported  in  a  single
              "conn"  status,  whose  color  is  determined from  the result of
              pinging the IP's and the best/worst setting.  The  default method
              is  "best"  -  so  it  will report green if just one  of the IP's
              respond to ping.

    Hi,

    We have one last custom script to move over from an old BB  server to
    a Hobbit :)

    It was a script to ping all the interfaces of a host and show the
    results in a "IP" column.

    With fping you can specify multiple hosts to ping. Is there a  simple
    way to have hobbit do this for us already?
    Ideally to show the ping results in the "conn" column.

    I have attached a screenshot of what the current script shows.

    Thanks,

    Lee
