Can you change the frequency at which the plugin send icmp? I have been trying to send 5 pings every 30s, but there is no paramater that can change the intervall.
-i / intervall in telegaf.conf doesnt affect the time between ping tests.
I believe that you can set the interval for any input plugin to change the input interval for that individual plugin.
# # Ping given url(s) and return statistics
[[inputs.ping]]
interval = "30s"
# ## NOTE: this plugin forks the ping command. You may need to set capabilities
# ## via setcap cap_net_raw+p /bin/ping
# #
# ## List of urls to ping
urls = ["www.google.com"] # required
# ## number of pings to send per collection (ping -c <COUNT>)
count = 5
Is what I have in my telegraf.conf and it seems to do what you want.
Best regards,

thnx i was missing that "interval = ā30sā setting.
