Netwatch monitors the state of hosts on the network. Monitoring can be done with the following probe types:
1) ICMP - pings to a specified IP address - hosts, with an option to adjust threshold values
2) Simple - uses ping, without use of advanced metrics
3) TCP conn, to test the TCP connection
4) HTTP GET/HTTPS GET, request against a server you are monitoring
