However the file given +above is the default file used by the plugin. If it is changed then the plugin +needs to be called with --stat-file <filename>. The commands however are +required, except for the AT+COPS? command. This is only for operator detection +and can be disabled, if one isn't interested what operator the modem is +registered to. + +Known Bugs: +----------- +Currently the script does not work with the embedded perl interpreter for unknown reasons. +Therefore it contains a + +# nagios: -epn + +header, which causes nagios to not use the embedded perl interpreter for it. + +License: +------- +This plugin is licensed under the terms of the GPL v2 or later. See COPYING for details. +Author: +------ +Patrick Schoenfeld <schoenfeld@debian.org> |
