How can I set an alert if the ping response time is over a threshold?

All;

On my current BigBrother server, my BB server pings whatever server/device is being monitored, retaining the pings response time, which is then converted into LAARD for a pretty look.  I *believe* the script that does this is ~bin/bb-network.sh 

Does anyone know can I can do the same with Xymon?

Also, can I setup an icon/column just for tracking the ping "to" a non-client-installed remote IP?  I.e., my ISP's border router far side IP.

Am I trying to do this all wrong?

Thanks,

I got smokeping downloaded but cannot figure how to setup /usr/bin/speedy?


Thanks,

I want to alert on the CONN tag if the ping time is over lets say
100ms. Is anyone doing that and how did they accomplish it?

Have you tried setting the FPING variable in hobbitserver to
include some

relevant fping options. For example, you may want to add these:

-t50 -r2 -B1
