Today, we launched DNS and FTP Connection tests.  Within the Devices section of the Trendics Control Panel, you can now choose Add DNS Test or Add FTP Connection Test in the device action menus.

The DNS Test allows specifying a name server to be tested, a query to execute, and an answer to verify the result.  This DNS Test can check if a DNS server is responding and can also confirm that a domain continues to resolve correctly.

The FTP Connection Test allows specifying a host, a port, and receive text to confirm an FTP server is responding properly to connection requests.
