A good feature would be checking and handling "if the gateway is down" then "don't alert the user of all the outages"
In an example case,
A user could be on a laptop. The laptop could have a gateway of 192.168.1.1. The laptop may go idle, or the lid is shut. The networking on the machine at some point goes dark/idle. The gateway cannot be reached.
Instead of alerting all hosts are down, Grif should check/detect the gateway outage and suppress alerts. This should be performed before each set of checks.
