Why sometimes do my traffic tests return "Host is alive" vs. the actual interface rate? Sometimes it does it sometimes it does not.
Thanks,
Steve |

HostMonitor may display such status when monitored device was rebooted or statistics has been resetted (or counter overflow).

| How does this effect the average of the traffic stats? Does a 0 (zero) get averaged in when this happens? I'm seeing about 5-6 of these per day on all devices that are being monitored... |

Reply field is empty, right? So, it does not effect statistics counters (Min, Max, Average reply...)

I see 3 possibilities:
- you have huge traffic (> 2^64 bits)
- your devices do not support 64 bit counters (in this case SNMP counter resets after each 2Gb)
- or device is being rebooted every day
