Hello

Do we need to use HUM or IPMS.

HUM has one availabityt report, but it is snmp based and not ICMP.

This report displays the device availability data for each device polled for the Device Availability template. The information is presented using tables and graphs.

For more details check:

If you need availability of certain device you may consider IP SLA, where you can configure your device for ICMP ECHO or PATH ECHO kind of operation, which also measure availability.

This can be done using IPM module of LMS, please check :
