Maybe this is supported(?) or someone has a hack available: Would like to see support for a displayed description field for the hosts.cfg conn declaration for cases where there are multiple IPs.

When there are a multiple IPs being tested on a given host, it can be a bit confusing figuring out what a particular failing IP is associated with. Ideally the description would show up in the status report to help identify the IP's purpose.

For example in the hosts.cfg file:

1.2.3.1 main-host1 # conn=worst,1.2.4.10 (ILO address), 1.2.5.20 (PA-RISC Console port), 1.2.3.2 (Web Server Business Portal), 1.2.3.3 (Web Server https Business Portal), 1.2.3.4 (Oracle Listener/databases connections)......

In web status page:

1.2.3.1 is alive (1ms) 1.2.4.10 is alive (3 ms) ILO address 1.2.5.20 is alive (3 ms) PA-RISC Console port 1.2.3.2 is alive (1 ms) Web Server Business Portal 1.2.3.3 is unreachable Web Server https Business Portal 1.2.3.4 is alive (1 ms) Oracle Listener/databases connections

The secondary IPs can be declared as separate entries in the hosts.cfg but that can lead to display "bloat". Even using the separate entries, there is still no user-friendly detail in the status messages on what is being tested.

Group-compress <B>ILO ports</B> 1.2.4.10 main-host1 # conn ....

Group-compress <B>Console ports</B> 1.2.5.20 main-host1 # conn ....

Group-compress <B>Web Servers ports</B> 1.2.3.2 main-host1 # conn=worst,1.2.3.3 (so if the .3 address ip is unreachable, you don't know what the business impact is from just looking at the web status display) ....
