I am pinging about 7 of my WAN routers.  It works good.  You need to use
mrtg-ping-probe (look in the MRTG contrib directory for it)

here is an example of my mrtg.cfg entry....

is anyone using MRTG to monitor ping times to multiple servers on the net?
I am pretty green at MRTG so any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
