[rrd-users] Re: Need Ping Utility / Oracle Question

[Wayne Huang]

Why not use ping(8)?

In Perl, open a pipe to ping a machine one time and parse via regexps.  I
didn't test the following code so don't rely on it:

$ip = "127.0.0.1";
open(PIPE, "/bin/ping -c 1 $ip |");
# Now parse the output
while(<PIPE>)
{
        chomp;
        if (/^round-trip min\/avg\/max\/mdev = ([^\/]+)\/([^\/]+)\/([^\/]+)\/([^ ]+) .*$/)
        {
                $min = $1;
                $avg = $2;
                $max = $3;
                $mdev = $4;
        }
}
close(PIPE);

print $min, "\n";
print $avg, "\n";
print $max, "\n";
print $mdev, "\n";
