Monitors
ICMP ping monitor
Native ICMP via Go probes. Latency and packet loss for anything routable.
PING
What it checks
Sends ICMP echo requests and reports latency and packet loss across a rolling window. Helpful for network-layer checks that HTTP hides.
When to use it
- Servers you own where you want raw reachability before any HTTP stack is loaded.
- Home-lab or VPN endpoints.
- Diagnosing whether latency issues are at the network layer.
Config fields
Fields marked * are required.
Example config
json
{
"name": "edge-router reachability",
"type": "ping",
"config": {
"host": "198.51.100.42",
"packets": 4,
"max_loss_pct": 25,
"max_rtt_ms": 150
},
"interval_sec": 60
}Notes
- Many public IPs rate-limit ICMP; that is not a Teravor bug.
- Ownership verification (TXT / .well-known) is required for raw-IP monitors before first check.
