Monitoring for individual devices can be turned on or off via the Monitor Host checkbox under Console->Devices->(Edit). This will only turn on/off the icon on the monitor tab, the device will still be polled at its normal interval by Cacti. When turned on an icon will appear for that device on the monitor tab. Mousing over an icon will display the Device name, Status, IP Address, Ping time, Last Fail, and Percent availability in a tooltip. When a device goes down the icon will change to red, a mute button will appear, and the page will play a sound to alert you that something is down. The sound will repeat until the device recovers or the mute button is pressed.
If the threshold plugin is present, the monitor will show an orange icon when a threshold for that host is breached. It will not audibly alert (yet!).
Options
These options can be found under Settings in the Misc tab.
Alarm Sound
This is the sound file that will be played when a host is down. You can add sounds just by moving them into the sounds directory. It will only find wav or mp3 files.
Refresh Interval
This is the time in seconds before the page refreshes. (1 - 300) Default is 300.
Icon Spacing
This is how many icons to show per line. (1 - 20)
Show Icon Legend
Check this to show an icon legend on the Monitor display
