Basic check to see if a website (or even an API) is responding as expected. If this is put in a case statement, there would be enough flexibility to monitor just about anything that gives an HTTP response code, as well as the network path to the site looking at curl exit codes. As this is for a possible monitor, timeouts have been added to make sure that iteration overruns do not occur. ( hopefully, curl sometimes "sticks" longer than expected ) Show Sample Output
Easy way to grab the IP address of a machine for easy script use. If needed a "| grep -v 127.0.0.1" at the end will suppress localhost. Show Sample Output
