Out-of-Band PRTG Monitoring
As an IT Infrastructure Manager, I want PRTG to be enhanced with the capability to send an SNMP trap as a heartbeat at fixed, predefined intervals.
A receiving instance can thus detect a PRTG server outage via a watchdog mechanism if no heartbeat is received after a specified number of intervals.

Hi there,
Thank you again for submitting your idea to Paessler. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.
After careful consideration by our team, we've decided to decline this idea at this time. This decision was made based on several factors, which may include:
- It doesn't align with our current product roadmap or strategic priorities.
- The resources required for implementation outweigh the current projected benefits for our user base.
- There are technical limitations that prevent us from moving forward.
For this case we also have a workaround: Monitor the PRTG Server | Paessler Knowledge Base
While this particular idea won't be moving forward, please don't be discouraged! Your input is incredibly valuable, and we encourage you to continue sharing your thoughts and ideas with us.
Thanks for your understanding and for helping us shape the future of Paessler.
Best regards,
The Paessler Product Team
