<p class=MsoNormal>Errors in check_icmp?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>1) "./check_icmp -V"<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> Gives
no output<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>2) "./check_icmp -h" shows<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><snip><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>-w<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> warning
threshold (currently 200.000ms,0%)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>-c<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> critical
threshold (currently 500000.000ms,80%)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><snip><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Notice that the critical threshold "500000.000ms"
should probably read "500.000ms"<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>3) Plugin output of "./check_icmp -H localhost"
shows<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:.5in'>OK - localhost: rta 0.055ms, lost
0%|rta=0.055ms;200.000;500.000;0; pl=0%;40;80;;<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>?? Notice "pl=0%;40;80"<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Isn't that saying that a) 0% packet loss this test, b) 40%
WARNING threshold, and c) 80% CRITICAL threshold?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>If I am reading that right, I notice that the 40% listed in
the output does not match the 0% listed for “-w” in the help.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Do I misunderstand the output or help, or is the
"-h" output wrong and the default thresholds are -w 200.000ms,40%
-c 500.000ms,80%<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks for any response,<o:p></o:p></p>
