[smokeping-users] Re: HELP: telnetIOSping >:-/

[Paul Wulff]

Hi All,

After a few more hours of frustration I worked it out ... had problems in a
few areas. I've posted my resolution below so that other users with the same
problems as me can hopefully get something useful out of this!

1 - Final working config for telnetIOSping looks like this:
_______________________________

+ remotelatency
menu = Remote Latency
title = Remote Latency Results

probe = telnetIOSPing

++ Commshare-hk
menu = Hong Kong - UK
title =Quarry Bay (HK) to Commshare Application (UK)
host = 192.168.0.1
+++ PROBE_CONF
iospass = sm0kep!ng
iosuser = smokeping
target = 192.168.0.1
source = 10.1.1.1
psource = 10.1.1.1

++ siebel-hk
menu = Hong Kong - Siebel
title =Quarry Bay (HK) to Siebel (US)
host = 192.168.1.1
+++ PROBE_CONF
iospass = sm0kep!ng
iosuser = smokeping
target = 192.168.1.1
source = 10.1.2.1
psource = 10.1.2.1
_______________________________

I'm not sure if the above is 100% how it should be, but it works. Although
the routers are setup to resolve DNS names, I though I'd cut down one more
step for the router and use the IP address.


2 - Set up your routers correctly! I re-read the info supplied on the Telnet
IOS Probe page
(http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/smokeping/probes/telnetiosping.e
n.html) and made some minor changes to my routers!

Thanks all ...

Cheers,


Paul.
