Previously, when monitoring multiple IP addresses with an ICMP check, results for all addresses would be shown in one service. In case of many IP addresses, the user wouldn't have a good overview over availability of a particular address.

Enabling option Setup -> Services -> HTTP, TCP, Email, ... -> Check hosts with PING (ICMP Echo Request) -> Multiple services -> Create a service for every pinged IP address creates one service per IP address.
