Hi Guys, I have a big concern that the statistics collected by the native method of ping are incorrect. The Maximum and Minimum response times are often the same for multiple different url’s (ip’s) This makes me think that the averages might also be incorrect, as the min and max used would also reflex the average. it looks like the statistics collected are somehow crossed and reused, and hence not correct. i have attached a screenshot of the result collected, and color coded the entries i see where the number is the same for the differnt url’s [https://ibb.co/q7R2Q2j](https://ibb.co/q7R2Q2j) Debug logs provide no errors or additional information would you please have a look at it. thans for all the great work by the way ### Relevant telegraf.conf: [[inputs.ping]] method=“native” urls = [“x.x.x.x”, “x.x.x.x”, “x.x.x.x”, “x.x.x.x”, “x.x.x.x”, “x.x.x.x”, “x.x.x.x”, “x.x.x.x”, “x.x.x.x”, “x.x.x.x”, “x.x.x.x”] count = 10 timeout = 60.0 ### System info: Telegraf 17.3, windows 10, windows 2016 ### Steps to reproduce: 1. Use the same config as pasted above, and check the database field maximum\_response\_ms and minimum\_response\_ms ### Expected behavior: Individual measurements ### Actual behavior: a pattern og the same measurements/statistics being reused for individual url’s
