munin plugin to monitor dns response times

Κατηγορίες: DNS, System Administration — Tags:DNS, munin — Sotiris Tsimbonis @ 12:00 μμ

A munin plugin that allows you to monitor the response time of any DNS that allows you to recurse.

dnsresponse_ — it’s a poor man’s smokeping DNS probe :)
(wordpress.com does not allow arbitrary file uploads, so grab it from munin-exhange)

To install it, place it in /usr/share/munin/plugins/ and run “munin-node-configure –shell“.

By default it graphs the Average, Median and StdDev of 20 DNS queries.
