Hello everyone ,

in my company started using the dude, and we have the next question, what is the md service? how I can remove this is unnecessary, it means the average of the services?

Please give me some light on what it is and whether it is advisable to disable it, actually the only thing that interests us is whether the computers are down or up

thanks to all

That can be done in device configuration window → service tab:

You can select only the probes that you wish to use for monitoring of specific host. It’s completely up to you. In this case I guess ping probe will be enough. If that computer FW will accept ping.
