Monitor arbitrary TCP port

This SAM component monitor tests the ability of a TCP/IP-based service to accept incoming sessions. It tries to establish a socket connection using the Connect method of System. This component monitor does not compute a statistic.

The UDP protocol does not support basic echo commands because it is sessionless. Not a limitation of LogicMonitor, but a limitation in the underlying UDP protocol.

Would this support UDP?

If you setup active discovery using the script i posted above, you wouldn't use the "Add Monitored Instance" option at all. It would just show up since LM is discovering and listing them automatically.

Tested this, but when i hit the  autocomplete the module does not show up 

It's there. There's just a different search box for locator codes. (Yes, I know.) In the Exchange, in the top right, there's a locator search option. 

I have enhanced my version of this DS to include automatic discovery using this discovery script:

try{
    hostProps.get("pingmulti.targets").tokenize(",").each{
        target = it.tokenize("|")
        println(target[0] + "##" + target[1])
    }
    return 0
} catch (Exception e){return 1}

Set a property called "pingmulti.targets" in the format:
target1_IP/FQDN|target1_Name,target2_IP/FQDN|target2_Name

This also allows the appliesTo to be simplified to just "pingmulti.targets". 

However, keep in mind that this still only pings from the collector. If you want to ping from the target device to some other destination, consider these two DSs. Only works on Windows or Linux, but that's usually what people are going for.

Cant find PX4D7W. This is my first attempt at this, so I am probably doing something wrong. any advise would be helpful

This is public now. Try again.

I had DIY'd a scripted Groovy datasource ages. Not sure if this was exactly what PortMulti- did, but the results should be similar. 

(host, port) = "##WILDVALUE##".split(':')
try {
    s = new Socket(host, port.toInteger())
    s.close()
    return 0
} catch (ConnectException ce) {
    println ce.toString()
    return 1
} catch (BindException be) {
    println be.toString()
    return 4
} catch (NoRouteToHostException re) {
    println re.toString()
    return 2
} catch (PortUnreachableException pe) {
    println pe.toString()
    return 3
} catch (Exception e) {
    println e.toString()
    return 5
}

You would just then setup a datapoint to capture the exitCode and alert if it was > 0.
