	Example Input Plugin
The input plugin test UDP/TCP connections response time. It can also check response text.
Configuration:
[[inputs.net_response]]
  protocol = "tcp"
  address = ":80"
# TCP or UDP 'ping' given url and collect response time in seconds
[[inputs.net_response]]
  ## Protocol, must be "tcp" or "udp"
  protocol = "tcp"
  ## Server address (default localhost)
  address = "github.com:80"
  ## Set timeout
  timeout = "1s"
  ## Optional string sent to the server
  send = "ssh"
  ## Optional expected string in answer
  expect = "ssh"
  ## Set read timeout (only used if expecting a response)
  read_timeout = "1s"
[[inputs.net_response]]
  protocol = "udp"
  address = "localhost:161"
  timeout = "2s"
Measurements & Fields:
- net_response
- response_time (float, seconds)
- string_found (bool) # Only if "expected: option is set
 
Tags:
- All measurements have the following tags:
- server
- port
- protocol
