Hello,
Is there a way to specify warn/panic thresholds for the ping test? I'm monitoring several routers and would like to send notification to the network admins if things start getting too slow.

man bb-hosts search for BADCONN

I was looking at badconn, but I'm not sure it's going to do what I need. My understanding is that you can specify different thresholds for failure instead of the test going red immediately.
I'm wondering if there is a setting to warn based on the result of the successful response time. eg: The ping response comes back, but it was 500ms which too high for that are of the network.

Ah, then you want to run mrtg with ping-probe, and use bbmrtg.pl to alert hobbit of the data collected.

Not yet.
A future improvement to Hobbit is to define such thresholds and have them implemented on the Hobbit server. That would allow you to use such thresholds on any kind af data reported into Hobbit - including your client-side tests, without any modifications needed on the client side. I have a pretty good idea about how to do this - essentially, there will be a module that looks at each status message just after hobbit receives it, but before it is passed on to log the new status; this module can then look at the data using the same parsing methods as the LARRD module, and change the color of the status based on what thresholds are set.
But that is for a future version.
Regards, Henrik
