This plugin seems to work ok, but it does fail if the device you’re pinging completely vanishes. This causes the ping command to return a destination host unreachable error the the script can’t handle it and returns bad data (error code 255). I believe I have fixed this by adding these lines after the “Special handler for TTL” section:
REM ######## special handler for complete loss ####### FOR /F “tokens=3 delims= ” %%k in (‘findstr /c:”Destination host unreachable” %randomfilename%’) do ( set LST=100 set AVG=1000 )
I’ve tested this on my system and it seems to work now instead of kicking back bad data.
