WAN Link Balancing: Customize Health-Check Parameters
Would like ability to configure the uplink monitoring health check parameters. Such as change the ping time threshold to other than 15 secs. With multiple interfaces we'd like to choose which interfaces should ping which custom hosts.

We have extended the Health-Check parameters starting with ASG 8.3 and now in UTM9. Click the “wrench” button after you disable automatic monitoring, and you can then configure many specific items. Regarding per-Interface host checking, this is possible, yet a bit advanced.
Bind the host(s) you want to the interface(s) you want to check on via the definitions section in advanced, and then place them in the monitoring list. The system will be smart enough to skip over hosts not bound to their respective uplinks for monitoring purposes and your goal is reached. Enjoy.

I'd like it to also have a time threshold setting; e.g. if it goes down, wait X minutes before sending an email.
