Dpinger and LTE alerts

@dennypage

First thank you for developing and maintaining your package for pfsense.

Can you increase the limits on latency thresholds? About 6 times a day my cell towers switch and I get between a 3500 and 4000ms latency bump and then it goes back to sub 200ms. I'm flooded with alerts. As far as I can tell, there is a limit in the GUI at least to keep latency numbers less than 2000ms.

Can that be increased (~10s?) or even have the option not to have latency alerts, just packet loss? I can tweak packet loss percentage by changing probe frequency (now 30s). This is a backup gateway.

Thanks,

Devan

You can access the dpinger configuration used to start dpinger in System -> Routing -> Gateways.

If I enter a value greater than 2000, it reports that the low latency needs to be lower than the high latency. 1999 or less is accepted.

@ddbnj You will want to adjust both the low and high.

Thank you. I didn't realize the loss interval influence on latency thresholds.
