Ping + timestamp + selected response
Hello All,

i would like to start ping command and the result should contain also Timestate.

this i'm able to do with following command :
Code:
ping HOSTNAME | perl -nle 'print scalar(localtime), " ", $_'

or
Code:
ping HOSTNAME | awk '/time\=([0-9]+\.[0-9]{2}) ms /^[0-9]+ bytes from / { "date" | getline pong; close("date"); print pong":",$0; }'

but how can i select that it should write to file only responses where response time is bigger than for example 0.5ms.

everything under 0.5ms can be ignored.

Can you please help me Smilie

Thank you

How about awk:-
Code:
ping -c 5 HOSTNAME | awk -F= 'NR>1 && /bytes/ { gsub("ms","",$NF); if($NF>0.5) print $0 } '
