Description
To reiterate requests previously entered as OBS-454 and OBS-1147
We need the ability to monitor "PING only" devices.
Our purpose is to monitor network paths "outside" of the SD-WAN logical routes. We can monitor the individual SD-WAN concentrators on the far end of the tunnel via SNMP; but we also need to be able to monitor the individual paths to each device.
Note that this doesn't provide just ping-only, but lets you run any available probe against arbitrary hosts, so you can do http/traceroute/etc checks against things that can't be added to Observium.
If we were to implement a secondary device list, it'd basically just be the same as this, but with the need to override the host argument removed!
