Checking communication presence with secondary IP address(device) while primary communication is established

Checking communication presence with secondary IP address(device) while primary communication is established

Hello team, In many of the drivers, we have option to enter a secondary IP address/ redundant IP address. In my case IEC 60870 client driver. My requirement is, while my SCADA is communicating with the primary IP address in the driver, I want to check the healthiness of the secondary IP address at regular time period. If not healthy I want to create a event/alarm. Please suggest on this.
