Network managers seeking a tool to measure, store and display latency, latency distribution and packet loss
About SmokePing
SmokePing is a deluxe latency measurement tool. It can measure, store and display latency, latency distribution, and packet loss. SmokePing uses RRDtool to maintain a long-term data store and to draw pretty graphs, giving up-to-the-minute information on the state of each network connection. Click on any graph in detail mode and use the mouse to mark your area of interest in the navigator graph. Show information from multiple targets in a graph. With one central Smokeping Master node, you can run a series of Slave nodes, taking their configuration from the master. This allows you to ping a single target from multiple locations. The standard deviation is now used in several places to give a number for the variation in round trip times as depicted by the smoke. Wide variety of probes, ranging from simple ping to web requests and custom protocols. Master/slave deployment model to run measurements from multiple sources in parallel.
