Hi, 
I've searched the archive as well as online but couldn't find a concrete answer. 
How can I monitor hosts that have multiple IP Addresses? 
Currently we assign a 'virtual hostname' to each IP: 
IP Hostname_a
IP Hostname_b
IP Hostanme_c etc. 

I'm sure there muct be a simpler way. 

Secondly, I've seen posts that explain how to schedule checks and alerts for 'critical' hosts with "NKTIME", but is there a way to schedule check of all hosts without adding them to a 'critical' list? 
We only want to check certain hosts 19:00 - 06:00 M-F for example. 

Thanks,
Mario
