What is SmokePing?

SmokePing is a sophisticated tool specifically developed for accurate latency measurement. Beyond merely logging and demonstrating latency, it also monitors the distribution of latency and the metrics of packet loss. By leveraging RRDtool, SmokePing manages a comprehensive long-term data repository and generates visually appealing graphs that deliver real-time insights into the conditions of different network connections. Users can explore any graph in detail mode, which allows for the highlighting of particular areas of interest with the aid of a navigator graph. Moreover, it provides the capability to showcase data from multiple targets within a single graph, thereby enhancing its utility. A centralized Smokeping Master node allows for the deployment of multiple Slave nodes, which inherit their configurations from the master, enabling the simultaneous pinging of a single target from various locations. Recently, the tool has integrated standard deviation metrics in several instances to effectively measure the variations in round trip times as illustrated by the smoke signals. SmokePing is compatible with an extensive array of probes, including standard ping, web requests, and even custom protocols, which adds to its versatility. Its master/slave architecture not only streamlines the measurement process but also allows for simultaneous assessments from different sources, thereby offering an enriched perspective on overall network performance. As a result, users can make more informed decisions based on a thorough analysis of their network's latency and reliability.
