Something I found that is helpful once you've gathered a list of targets is the following command for generating config to paste: traceroute -w 3 [IPaddress] | grep -v "*" | grep -v "traceroute" | sed -e 's/(//g' -e 's/)//g' | awk '{ gsub(/\./,"_",$2); print "++++ "$2"\nmenu = "$3"\ntitle = "$2" - "$3"\nhost = "$3"\n"}' That generates a valid output for configs to ping each hop along the way to your destination, which can be super useful. Not all of them allow ICMP but a decent amount do. On Thu, Jan 7, 2016 at 10:34 AM, Brian R. Swan <swannie () swannie net> wrote:
Hi all, I’m setting up smokeping to try and gather some latency statistics on my ISP to different parts of the world. Does there exist a list or any generic recommendations of different targets to config within smokeping? Google and searching the NANOG mailing list have failed me, and I don’t want to just spam random IP addresses with ICMP requests if there’s a more official/accepted method for doing this. Thanks!
