[Xymon] Conn Alert after one missed packet

Hello list,

Is it possible to be alerted when one single packet is lost i.e. conn request does not receive a reply for the first packet?

I know the default fping sends out 3 packets when if the conn request does not receive a reply after a set period. Looking at the fping man page, I've changed the fping syntax to "fping -A -e -r1", but this will still send one additional ping packet before an alert is raised.

Alternatively I could look at creating a custom script, but obviously it's easier if this facility is already built-in somehow.

Thanks, Mario
