Telekom gateways (e.g.) don't answer 'pings', therefor '/etc/ppp/ip-up' uses 'ping.ipfire.org' for the 'gateway Graph' in 'Status / Network (other'. After moving the infrastructure, several IP addresses were changed. '178.63.73.246' doesn't work anymore for 'ping.ipfire.org', its now '81.3.27.38'.

Hi,
this is right.
Usually the systems should never reach the code where the name cannot be resolved. We have moved to a new data center, so that IP address has to be updated, too.
I don't know why this is hard-coded though. I don't like it.
Merged.
Best, -Michael

Full ACK.
The problem seems to be the Telekom-gateway: My '217.0.117.111' doesn't answer to ping-requests. Seems to be normal 'Telekom'-behaviour(?).
So my IPFire usually uses the IP-address of 'ping.ipfire.org', otherwise the 'gateway'-stats are empty.
Using 'tracepath' and some modifications, we once tried to find another solution (https://forum.ipfire.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=15432&hilit=telekom+gat...).
But with my (paranoid) configuration (everything is blocked, except...) this had the effect that 'tracepath' filled my firewall-logs with blocked REJECT_OUTPUTs on Port 44444 or 4444X (https://forum.ipfire.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=15432&hilit=telekom+gat...).
Best, Matthias
