Once the plugin is installed, log into your Centreon poller's CLI using the
centreon-engine user account (su - centreon-engine) and test the plugin by
running the following command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_monitoring_speedtest.pl \
--plugin=apps::monitoring::speedtest::plugin \
--mode=internet-bandwidth
The expected command output is shown below:
OK: speedtest ping time: 35 ms, download: 97.15 Mb/s, upload: 105.55 Mb/s | 'ping.time.milliseconds'=35.768ms;;;0; 'internet.bandwidth.download.bitspersecond'=97153647b/s;;;0; 'internet.bandwidth.upload.bitspersecond'=105554658b/s;;;0;
