EEM to detect ping loss

[deilert]

I am looking to use EEM to generate a syslog message if a certain number of pings or % of pings fail

For example

ping ip dest 10.1.1.2 source 10.0.0.1 size 1500 rep 500 data 0x4040

if less than 450 or 90 % of these pings are successful then generate a syslog message

I do not think IPSLA will work because you can not use a data pattern and you have to use udp-jitter probe have a trigger

I want to use this to detect a degraded circuit.

Thanks

I forgot yo mention the code is 124-15.T

This script should do what you want.  You will need to configure some environment variables before you get started.

event manager environment ping_sweep_repeat 500
event manager environment ping_sweep_pattern 0x4040
event manager environment ping_sweep_src 10.0.0.1
event manager environment ping_sweep_dest 10.1.1.2
event manager environment ping_sweep_size 1500
event manager environment ping_sweep_perc 90

The script is written using the none event detector, so you will need to run it manually:

event manager run no_ping_test.tcl
