I have a bunch of gear that my clients have access to and reboot/work on. [snip] I would like to be able to have it so that when a piece of gear misses a poll, it goes yellow if it misses three then go red.
Use "delayred=conn:15" - that will make the "conn" status stay green until a red status has been reported for 15 minutes. It won't go yellow initially, but at least you won't have the alarms going off.
Note: "delayred" was introduced in the 4.3.5 release. Prior to that, you could use the "bad" flag to achieve the same. See the hosts.cfg man-page for details.
