Hi!
We have encountered a rather weird problem on a machine that we use for
our network latency check (smokeping with fping).
For an hour (or so) after boot it reports the ping time with a
microsecond accuracy (ad it should).
Then the millisecond accuracy starts.
We have yet to identify the cause and the logs currently do not show
anything.
Please find an example of a good and a bad result below.
Regards,
Mitja
When it works: (microsecond accuracy):
[root@server ~]# ping test.example.net
PING test.example.net (123.1.2.3) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from test.example.net (123.1.2.3): icmp_seq=1 ttl=62 time=0.562 ms
64 bytes from test.example.net (123.1.2.3): icmp_seq=2 ttl=62 time=0.452 ms
64 bytes from test.example.net (123.1.2.3): icmp_seq=3 ttl=62 time=0.579 ms
--- test.example.net ping statistics ---
3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 1998ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.452/0.531/0.579/0.056 ms
And when it does not (millisecond accuracy):
[root@server ~]# ping test.example.net
PING test.example.net (123.1.2.3) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from test.example.net (123.1.2.3): icmp_seq=1 ttl=62 time=1.99 ms
