+# Python (2.5+) version of the plugin to monitor ping times. 
+# Evolution from the standard shipped with munin by adding a ceil.

+# Thanks to "Jimmy Olsen" for the base.

+# Parameters:
+#
+#       ping_args      - Arguments to ping (default "-c 2")
+#       ping_args2     - Arguments after the host name (required for Solaris)
+#       ping           - Ping program to use
+#       host           - Host to ping
+#
+# Arguments for Solaris:
+#      ping_args      -s
+#      ping_args2     56 2
