Icinga 2 supports optional detection of hosts and services that are "flapping".
Flapping occurs when a service or host changes state too frequently, which would result in a storm of problem and
- recovery notifications. With flapping enabled a flapping notification will be sent while other notifications are
- suppressed until it calms down after receiving the same status from checks a few times. flapping can help detecting
+ recovery notifications. With flapping detection enabled a flapping notification will be sent while other notifications are
+ suppresed until it calms down after receiving the same status from checks a few times. Flapping detection can help detect

Flapping detection can be enabled or disabled using the `enable_flapping` attribute.
