Scan to see when an IP comes online

How would I go about scanning an IP scope to see if an ip comes online? I have a special IP scope for consultants and want to know when they are online, and for how long. Is that possible?

Hey Phillip,

This is only possible with a ping sensor on a device which has entered the desired IP address. The Ping sensor will monitor the device when it's online or not.
