ping

goal

monitor the network time between your host and others

units

seconds (see below : dependency)

1 parameter for each configured host

more info

• man ping

remark

you have to configure this module

dependency

to measure time with a precision less than 1 second, perl (base) do not offer any standard answser.
So this module will try differents solutions :

1. use if perl module Time::HirRes (recommended method)
2. use of system calls (syscall with gettimeofday) : do not work everywhere
3. at least, use time function, with a precision in seconds

All this to recommend you to install the Time::HirRes perl module
