It's very simple.  Conn is a ping test - it pings your host (with one of two utilities).

Example:

192.168.1.1 <http://192.168.1.1>;   myrouter.domain.tld #

This will ping 192.168.1.1 <http://192.168.1.1>;  on every poll cycle and report to you via the web pages and email alerts if you've configured that in hobbit-alert.cfg

That means it does just a ping & if the ping doesn't not reply, it will display an RED alert ?
And if the ping make 200ms or 2000ms or 15000ms to answer ? 
  Thanks you

Well it depends whether you are using fping or hobbitping -
try reading the
man pages, which can be accessed from the Help menu of the web page. 	>
This tells you how many pings, what happens when the first
ping fails, the
timeout etc etc and yes it is configurable.

	
	Thanks you for you answer but I still can figure out what do a "conn" exactly. Can you give the direct URL please ?

Hello again,

   I'm polishing a Hobbit installation. I would like to know
how the Hobbit
server handle the "conn" step. I guess it's a couple of 	> ping, isn't it ?
   How it works when a first ping doesn't not respond? How
many packet are
sent each time? What is the time-out? Can we configure it?

   Thanks by advance for any informations related to this ;) 	> >
