I have never had to add them or go near them as the version I was originally running just simply emailed me with Device down, device up, device rebooted, or if I wanted it to - port down etcI do not have any Alert-checkers.....hmmm,I think I am beginning to see the error in my ways perhaps,
So the new version will not do this by default? Do I need to created alert checkers for all my devices?
