I have been handed an assignment to build a dynamic page that:

1.   Will PING hosts on our network...
2.   Based on a metric, return to the page green, yellow or red (ie. up, problem, or down) of the host being pinged.

I know in ASP.NET 2.0 there is a new namespace called System.Net.NetworkInformation and there is even a nice little article on building a windows app.  (http://msdn.microsoft.com/coding4fun/inthebox/netutils/default.aspx)

My problem is management does not want beta products on production servers and I can't wait until later this summer when ASP.NET is released.

Can someone point me in the right direction on using 1.1 for this project and perhaps a code snippet to get me going?

Thanks...

Andy

Thanks for the speedy reply...

I am not at all familiar with C#.   Is there a way to do this in Visual Basic?
