    I'd like to be able to create a client that i can run on the local network, that reports internal server status back to UpDown.

    I can use the API to send the status updates, but it would be nice to have a way to set a monitor as down if it doesn't receive an update within a set time limit.
    E.g.
    Internal monitor sends updates every 10 mins about a local web server (that is only accessible from inside our network).
    A local network switch dies, so monitor system can no longer send updates to UpDown
    No updates received by UpDown in the last 15 mins, so mark that monitor as failed.

    I know the above could be done by forwarding a port to my internal monitor systems and using TCP monitoring, but would like to avoid that as it always has the possibility of a security failure if someone discovered the open port.
    Thanks
