## How to ping. "native" doesn't have external dependencies, while "exec" depends on 'ping'.
|
||||
## Method used for sending pings, can be either "exec" or "native". When set
|
||||
## to "exec" the systems ping command will be executed. When set to "native"
|
||||
## the plugin will send pings directly.
|
||||
##
|
||||
## While the default is "exec" for backwards compatibility, new deployments
|
||||
## are encouraged to use the "native" method for improved compatibility and
|
||||
## performance.

||||
# method = "exec"
|
||||
|
||||
## Specify the ping executable binary, default is "ping"
|
||||

## Number of ping packets to send per interval. Corresponds to the "-c"
|
||||
## option of the ping command.
|
||||
# count = 1
|

|
||||
## Arguments for ping command. When arguments is not empty, system binary will be used and
|
||||
## other options (ping_interval, timeout, etc) will be ignored.
