SmokePing is a latency monitoring tool that measures, visualizes, and alerts on network latency using configurable probes such as ping, fping, or HTTP checks. Developed by Tobi Oetiker, it provides detailed, historical graphs of network performance, making it ideal for diagnosing intermittent issues or verifying SLAs. It uses RRDtool for data storage and graphing.

Features

  • Tracks and graphs network latency over time
  • Uses multiple probes for different protocols
  • Supports target grouping and hierarchy
  • Built-in alerting and escalation system
  • Historical data storage via RRDtool
  • Web-based UI for monitoring and configuration
