Improve uptime detection for devices #118

Closed marcus67 closed 3 years ago

marcus67 commented 3 years ago

Current behavior: Ping failures to devices are handled in a special way by not counting them as part of the statistics. This causes discontinuities when devices have intermittent failures to respond. Desired: Ping failures are counted as a ping with a high response time, e.g. 1,5*[maximum delay]. That way they "blend" in more naturally into the statistics. Hopefully, this will improve overall uptime detection.
