- Homelab operators monitoring self-hosted network devices
- Worth noticing
- HTTPS checks include certificate-expiry advisories, and the built-in self-updater verifies SHA-256 before replacing the binary.
Field notes
The status logic uses a sliding window of real checks: loss thresholds can trigger warning or error states, errors are rechecked on a 30-second pulse, and recovery requires a clean pulse. HTTP checks follow redirects, while HTTPS targets receive certificate-expiry advisories. The page lists Discord and Google Chat webhooks and offers both a systemd user-service installer and a Docker Compose route.
