Hi all.
I am currently thinking about monitoring a network link (bandwidth, latency, packet drop). I have a centos server which is connected to providers network through a switch. How to test the link? Should I:
- use ICMP to ping gateway and collect staistics of time/packet
loss/etc.
- use software like here:

Hi Rafal,
I use this https://collectd.org/wiki/index.php/Plugin:Ping collectd plugin to monitor latency and packet drop. The bandwidth can be monitored with another plugin, if it's the server bandwidth, or using snmp on the router to monitor the site bandwitdth.
