Network path intelligence
When connectivity issues arise, ping monitoring helps you quickly determine if the problem is at your server, your ISP, or somewhere in the routing path between locations.
Packet loss patterns reveal network congestion before it becomes critical, giving you actionable intelligence for infrastructure decisions.
Monitor from multiple global locations to detect regional connectivity issues and prove SLA compliance to customers in different regions.
Early warning system
Latency spikes often precede outages. Ping monitoring catches these early warning signs, allowing you to investigate and resolve issues before they impact your users.
Ping monitoring can reveal intermittent connectivity problems that might otherwise go unnoticed until they become critical.
Monitor the fundamental network layer that everything else depends on. When ping fails, you know the problem is deeper than just your application.
Cost-effective infrastructure health
Complement your existing monitoring
Ping monitoring fills gaps where TCP monitoring can't reach, such as network equipment and basic connectivity validation.
Validate that routing works before checking if applications respond - essential for efficient incident response workflows.
Use latency trends for proactive capacity planning to know when to upgrade network infrastructure, and leverage packet loss patterns to optimize routing and peering decisions.
Security-First Monitoring
Monitor your network infrastructure and internal systems safely by restricting ping access to Oh Dear's fixed IP addresses only. No need to expose systems publicly for monitoring.
Configure your firewalls, security groups, and access control lists to allow ICMP traffic exclusively from Oh Dear's monitoring servers, maintaining your security posture while ensuring comprehensive network monitoring coverage.
Our static IP addresses don't change often, providing stable security rules that won't break over time. Monitor internal networks, private servers, and critical infrastructure without creating security vulnerabilities.
- Get our complete list of static IP addresses for secure monitoring. Perfect for firewall rules and security group configurations. View our IP addresses.

Reverse Monitoring & Compliance
Monitor services that should remain hidden for compliance and security reasons. Get immediate alerts when internal systems, staging environments, or sensitive infrastructure accidentally become publicly accessible via ICMP ping.
Compliance violations often occur when supposedly isolated systems become reachable due to configuration errors, network changes, or security misconfigurations that expose internal infrastructure.
Set up reverse monitoring to ensure your sensitive systems maintain their intended isolation and receive instant notifications if they become unexpectedly pingable from external networks.
- Perfect for PCI DSS, HIPAA, SOX compliance requirements where internal services must remain isolated. Monitor from multiple external locations to ensure your security perimeter remains intact.
