My Hobbit server does the display, network testing and alerting. Using the default 5 minute interval for network tests. Some have complained that connectivity tests to certain routers should happen more frequently. But, as far as I can see, network testing interval is an all or nothing variable. So I'm thinking of setting up second network tester and using NET variable in bb-hosts to have the particular routers in question tested by second network tester, running its tests more frequently.
Preamble done - now, how do I go about setting up second network tester? Configuring another server and disabling all unnecessary tasks in hobbitlaunch.cfg? If so, which will I need for the tester to work properly?
