If you haven't already; add the Observium host as a device.
Then add the icmp probe to your Observium device.

Hi
I was able to set up the probe, but i cannot add it to a device since the device doesn't exist (and cannot be added since it cannot speak snmp).
What am i doing wrong?
Best,

You can’t add non-SNMPable devices to Observium’s SNMP polling system, no.
Read the page I linked, it explains.

Hi
I don't really get it sorry, it seems that you can add the probe check after the device is added to Observium.
However, how can i add the device (./add_device.php or via ui) to Observium if it doesn't speak SNMP. For me it always fails with
Could not reach apar01 with given SNMP parameters using v1.

Hi
How can i add a device which cannot (!) speak any snmp and only responds to ping/icmp requests?
We have an Aruba wlan setup (Mobility Master and two Mobility Controllers) and i want to add the aps to Observium, so that they are monitored but only by ping/icmp.
(The MM and the two MCs are already added to Observium, but i cannot see if one AP went offline or came back online again)
The aps cannot speak any snmp when managed by the MM or MC, thats why it fails when i try to add one via ./add_device.php
I appreciate any help :)
Best,
Thomas
