PINGU.CONF(5) PINGU.CONF(5) NAME pingu.conf - pingu daemon configuration file DESCRIPTION The file can contain 3 different contexts: Global context, interface context and host context. Blank lines and lines starting with # are ignored. GLOBAL CONTEXT The config file starts in global context. In this section the default values for the keywords used in interface on hosts sections are set. Values set in global context can be overridden in interface and host sections. interval Set the default ping burst interval timeout The default ping timout value in seconds. If the ping response does not come back within "timeout" seconds the ping is considered lost. required The minimum required ping responses of a burst to consider the host online. retries Maximum sent ping packets for a burst. up-action The default action to execute when a ping host goes online. down-action The default action to execute when a ping host goes offline. INTERFACE CONTEXT Example: interface eth0 { keyword value ... } The keywords valid in an interface sections are: gateway-down-action Execute this action when a gateway is considered offline. gateway-up-action Execute this action when a gateway is considered online. label A user defined label that will be used in logs and by pinguctl. load-balance Enable balancing for this interface. A minimum of two interfaces need to be configured in order for load-balancing to work. An optional weight value can be given. required-hosts-online The minimum number of ping hosts that needs to be online to consider the gateway online. route-table The alternate route table for this interface. rule-priority The preference value for the ip rule. ping Host to ping to verify that gateway is still up. This is the same as defining a host and bind it to interface. fwmark Add an additional route rule for configured fwmark integer. HOST CONTEXT Example: host 1.2.3.4 { keyword value ... } bind-interface Bind the pings to this interface. down-action Execute this action when ping host goes offline. interval The interval for ping bursts. label A label to be used in logs and pinguctl. required The number of required ping responses to consider host online. retry The maximum number of retries for a ping burst. timeout The ping response timeout value in seconds.
