PING Network Monitoring / latency Dashboard

README.md

The flow checks whether the device answers to ping. If it does not, it will show a red indication in front of the device name. and in another group, the same devices show real-time latency. The default ping is every 5 seconds but can be configured.

tested on Centos7, windows and raspberry pi 3 mod-b devices

Thanks for this! I can get the UI to show the latency gauge but not the server rack LEDs - any ideas?

@lancelon Hi, ui led node package no more works with latest node.js version, you have to use Node.js version: v10.16.3

Thanks @vaibhavarduino - appreciate you replying so quickly! Is there a fix in the works do you know? :-D :-D or a thread I can monitor for changes?

@lancelon yes u can, but it will take some time until new ui led node package update gets available.
Or, you can use indicator created using CSS in ui-template instead of led. (attached template code file above)

Thank you! I've implemented the CSS code in ui-template and it sort of works - I get the 'UP' message but it's not contained in a green 'button' style background

Hi @lancelon, have a look at new flow uploaded today (https://flows.nodered.org/flow/e937dd9ddf50342d5f8813f7d2dff610)

That works! Thanks! :-)

Actually - comparing it to your JPG - I get the UP in a green box [but I don't get the individual LEDs](
image share
) - despite updating to the new LED fork. Weird. Anyway I'm not expecting you to do anything just for interest's sake! Thanks again

@lancelon have you tried importing my flow? Or if u only update led fork package ,its not going to work..u hv to remove contrib led package completely..from manage palette options

…

I've imported your flow and updated LED fork. I removed the previous (not forked) package beforehand too.
I'm not actually sure there's a difference between the -fork and the not forked packages because they both point at the same GitHub repo?

aha. Sorry. Restarting node-red sorted it...
