Warning when host reachable

Project Notes

Nagios Plugin to check that a host is offline as expected.

My idea was to check if my network printer is switched off when I don't need it, so the idea is linked to home use but you might figure other fields of use.

Displays a warning when [warn_count] out of [packet_count] packages were successful

Usage: ./check_online_warning.sh $HOSTADDRESS$ $ARG1$ $ARG2$
having: $ARG1$ = packet_count, $ARG2$ = warn_count

Example 1:
> ./check_online_warning.sh 172.22.10.20 4 4
WARNING - Host 192.168.0.20 is switched on (PL=0%)

Example 2:
> ./check_online_warning.sh 172.22.10.200 4 4
OK - Host 192.168.0.200 is switched off (PL=+4)
