# Ping Input plugin
|
|
|
|
This input plugin will measures the round-trip
|
|
|
|
### Configuration:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# NOTE: this plugin forks the ping command. You may need to set capabilities
|
|
# via setcap cap_net_raw+p /bin/ping
|
|
[[inputs.ping]]
|
|
## List of urls to ping
|
|
urls = ["www.google.com"] # required
|
|
## number of pings to send per collection (ping -c <COUNT>)
|
|
# count = 1
|
|
## interval, in s, at which to ping. 0 == default (ping -i <PING_INTERVAL>)
|
|
## Not available in Windows.
|
|
# ping_interval = 1.0
|
|
## per-ping timeout, in s. 0 == no timeout (ping -W <TIMEOUT>)
|
|
# timeout = 1.0
|
|
## interface to send ping from (ping -I <INTERFACE>)
|
|
# interface = ""
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Measurements & Fields:
|
|
|
|
- packets_transmitted ( from ping output )
|
|
- reply_received ( increasing only on valid metric from echo replay, eg. 'Destination net unreachable' reply will increment packets_received but not reply_received )
|
|
- packets_received ( from ping output )
|
|
- percent_reply_loss ( compute from packets_transmitted and reply_received )
|
|
- percent_packets_loss ( compute from packets_transmitted and packets_received )
|
|
- errors ( when host can not be found or wrong prameters is passed to application )
|
|
- response time
|
|
- average_response_ms ( compute from minimum_response_ms and maximum_response_ms )
|
|
- minimum_response_ms ( from ping output )
|
|
- maximum_response_ms ( from ping output )
|
|
|
|
### Tags:

|
- host
|
|
- url

|
|
|
### Example Output:

```
|

$ ./telegraf --config telegraf.conf --input-filter ping --test
|
|
