## DESCRIPTION

Latency measurement using SSH. This generates Logfile messages on the other  Host, so get permission from the owner first!

- forks

  The number of concurrent processes to be run. See *probes::basefork*(3pm) for details.

Supported target-level probe variables:

- greeting

  Greeting string to send to the SSH Server. This will appear in the Logfile.  Use this to make clear, who you are and what you are doing to avoid confusion.

  Also, don't use something that is a valid version string. This probe assumes that the connection gets terminated because of protocol mismatch.

- sleeptime

  Time to sleep between two measurements in microsends. Default is 500000.

- interval

  The interval to measure

  - connect

    Interval between *connect()* and the greeting string from the host.

  - established

    Interval between our greeting message and the end of the connection  because of Protocol mismatch. This is the default.

  - complete

    From *connect()* to the end of the connection.

- timeout

  Timeout for the connection. Default is 5.

- port

  Connect to this port. Default is 22.
