Hello,
Lansweeper does ping the assets and shows the successful ping with that green dot next to the assets IP address.

My questions:
How often does Lansweeper ping that asset? Every x minutes?
And does Lansweeper ping the IP address or the hostname?

Best regards

Hello there!

These online status indicators are based on a ping request performed from the server hosting your Lansweeper web console to the client asset. If the asset is a Windows computer, the NetBIOS name is pinged; if the asset is not a Windows computer, the IP address is pinged.

The ping requests are performed on demand when you open the asset's Lansweeper webpage or select the Ping Assets button in overviews. This data isn't stored in the Lansweeper database.
