Egg::Plugin::Net::Ping - Net::Ping for Egg plugin.

  use Egg qw/ Net::Ping /;

  __PACKAGE__->egg_startup(
    ...
    .....
    plugin_net_ping => {
      protcol => 'tcp',
      timeout => 3,
      retry   => 1,
      wait    => 0.5,
      },

It is a plug-in to investigate while arbitrary PC is operating by Net::Ping.

Please set 'plugin_net_ping'.

They are the protocols such as tcp and udp.

Default is 'tcp'.

* I do not think that it operates well perhaps excluding tcp.

Time to wait for answer of ping.

Default is '3'.

Frequency in which ping is done.

Waiting time to doing next retry.

Default is '0.5'.

Own host address.

Ping is sent to TARGET_HOST, and the succeeding frequency is returned.

ARGS_HASH overwrites initialization.

* When retry is set to five times or more, five is compulsorily set.

  $e->ping('192.168.1.111', retry => 5 );

Egg::Release, Net::Ping,
