We use several Android devices (TVBox or simmilar) for applications like Digital Signage, etc... small boxes like http://goo.gl/ma4AGb (or other) with good funciontality and performance.

We would like an Android active agent + proxy so we can monitor android device and also "ping" (with proxy) other devices on same small network. Device can be rooted or not.

Current low cost devices are unique to provide new services at very atractive HW cost; while we are using several R-Pi, Odroid, etc.. (with Linux) for different services, Zabbix proxy, etc.. we would like to expand it for for Android devices.
