ssh on one onterface and ping on other interface
list Asif Iqbal
How do I ping test a client on one of its interface and ssh test on its other interface? A client has two interfaces, hme0 and hme1. Each interface has its own IP on same subnet. How do I craft the the bb-hosts entry for this system so that I can ping on interface and ssh on the other interface but keep the name of the host same as the IP that matches to hme0 interface?

You cannot do that with one entry in bb-hosts. As far as Hobbit is concerned, a host has one IP-address only. Regards, Henrik

Is there a work around? I just want to get ssh on interface and ping on
the other interface tested but keep the results under same hostname.

Let Hobbit do the ping test. Write a script to connect to the other port via ssh and send a green/red report to Hobbit. Ralph Mitchell

I have a script that I through together to do this. It is single threaded tho. No real documentation on it, but if you want it.. I could throw something together and forward it to ya. Basically the script uses nc to do a port check. ~Steve

I still think there is a simpler way to do this. I think I saw somethink
like this in the past.
1.2.3.4 host.net # testip ssh
0.0.0.0 host.net #
Something like that. But I have not found the exact example yet

1.2.3.4 <http://1.2.3.4>; host.net <http://host.net>; # testip ssh 0.0.0.0 <http://0.0.0.0>; host.net <http://host.net>; #
I think that would be: 1.2.3.4 host.net # conn testip 0.0.0.0 host.net # noconn ssh This would make the ping test ping 1.2.3.4, and the ssh test would be the DNS ip of host.net. I don't think Hobbit "likes" when you do that though, I know if you have duplicate hostnames it makes hobbitest turn yellow and fuss at you :) -Charles

Hmm.. why so? Is there a patch may be to fix that behavior?! -Charles

No it won't. This setup will make Hobbit use the IP from the first line. The "host.net" host has a "testip" flag associated with it, and an IP of 1.2.3.4 listed - so that is what Hobbit will use. Regards, Henrik

Hi, just give the second IP a virtual hostname so that names in bb-hosts differ and it will work regards Rolf
