Keynote should be able to monitor simple icmp echo requests. Last time i
worked with their product, i was able either to monitor our network with
icmp echo requests or measure the performance of our web-farm with
special URLs.
Anyhow, as i grabbed for any provider for this case, keynote seems to be
the only good one with reliable values.
