    # The _dyn() stuff here is quite confusing, so here's a walkthrough:
    # 1   Probe is defined in the Probes section
    # 1.1 _dyn is called for the section to add the probe- and target-specific
    #     vars into the grammar for this section and its subsections (subprobes)
    # 1.2 A _dyn sub is installed for all mandatory target-specific variables so 
    #     that they are made non-mandatory in the Targets section if they are
    #     specified here. The %storedtargetvars hash holds this information.
    # 1.3 If a probe section has any subsections (subprobes) defined, the main
    #     section turns into a template that just offers default values for
    #     the subprobes. Because of this a _dyn sub is installed for subprobe
    #     sections that makes any mandatory variables in the main section non-mandatory.
    # 1.4 A similar _dyn sub as in 1.2 is installed for the subprobe target-specific
    #     variables as well.
    # 2   Probe is selected in the Targets section top
    # 2.1 _dyn is called for the section to add the probe- and target-specific
    #     vars into the grammar for this section and its subsections. Any _default
    #     values for the vars are removed, as they will be propagated from the Probes
    #     section.
    # 2.2 Another _dyn sub is installed for the 'probe' variable in target subsections
    #     that behaves as 2.1
    # 2.3 A _dyn sub is installed for the 'host' variable that makes the mandatory
    #     variables mandatory only in those sections that have a 'host' setting.
    # 2.4 A _sub sub is installed for the 'probe' variable in target subsections that
    #     bombs out if 'probe' is defined after any variables that depend on the
    #     current 'probe' setting.

There are three types of "hosts" in smokeping.

${e}over

${e}item 1

The 'hostname' is a name of a host you want to target from smokeping

${e}item 2

The string B<DYNAMIC>. Is for machines that have a dynamic IP address. These boxes
are required to regularly contact the SmokePing server to confirm their IP address.
 When starting SmokePing with the commandline argument
B<--email> it will add a secret password to each of the B<DYNAMIC>
host lines and send a script to the owner of each host. This script
must be started periodically (cron) on the host in question to let smokeping know
where the host is curently located. If the target machine supports
SNMP SmokePing will also query the hosts
sysContact, sysName and sysLocation properties to make sure it is
still the same host.

${e}item 3

A space separated list of 'target-path' entries (multihost target). All
targets mentioned in this list will be displayed in one graph. Note that the
graph will look different from the normal smokeping graphs. The syntax for
multihost targets is as follows:

 host = /world/town/host1 /world/town2/host33 /world/town2/host1~slave

After setting up a hierarchy in the Presentation section of the
configuration file you can use this property to assign an entry to alternate
hierarchies. The format for parent entries is.

 hierarchyA:/Node1/Node2 hierarchyB:/Node3
      
The entries from all parent properties together will build a new tree for
each hierarchy. With this method it is possible to make a single target show
up multiple times in a tree. If you think this is a good thing, go ahead,
nothing is stopping you. Since you do not only define the parent but the full path
of the parent node, circular dependencies are not possible.

You can define multiple instances of the same probe with subsections. 
These instances can have different values for their variables, so you
can eg. have one instance of the FPing probe with packet size 1000 and
step 300 and another instance with packet size 64 and step 30.
The name of the subsection determines what the probe will be called, so
you can write descriptive names for the probes.

If there are any subsections defined, the main section for this probe
will just provide default parameter values for the probe instances, ie.
it will not become a probe instance itself.

The example above would be written like this:

 *** Probes ***

 + FPing
 # this value is common for the two subprobes
 binary = /usr/bin/fping 

 ++ FPingLarge
 packetsize = 1000
 step = 300

 ++ FPingSmall
 packetsize = 64
 step = 30

If 'concurrent_probes' is set to 'yes' (see above), this variable can be 
overridden by each probe. Note that the step in the RRD files is fixed when 
they are originally generated, and if you change the step parameter afterwards, 
you'll have to delete the old RRD files or somehow convert them.

        Alerts  => {
                    _doc => <<DOC,
The Alert section lets you setup loss and RTT pattern detectors. After each
round of polling, SmokePing will examine its data and determine which
detectors match. Detectors are enabled per target and get inherited by
the targets children.

Detectors are not just simple thresholds which go off at first sight
of a problem. They are configurable to detect special loss or RTT
patterns. They let you look at a number of past readings to make a
more educated decision on what kind of alert should be sent, or if an
alert should be sent at all.

The patterns are numbers prefixed with an operator indicating the type
of comparison required for a match.

The following RTT pattern detects if a target's RTT goes from constantly
below 10ms to constantly 100ms and more:

 old ------------------------------> new
 <10,<10,<10,<10,<10,>10,>100,>100,>100

Loss patterns work in a similar way, except that the loss is defined as the
percentage the total number of received packets is of the total number of packets sent.

 old ------------------------------> new
 ==0%,==0%,==0%,==0%,>20%,>20%,>=20%

Apart from normal numbers, patterns can also contain the values B<*>
which is true for all values regardless of the operator. And B<U>
which is true for B<unknown> data together with the B<==> and B<=!> operators.

Detectors normally act on state changes. This has the disadvantage, that
they will fail to find conditions which were already present when launching
smokeping. For this it is possible to write detectors that begin with the
special value B<==S> it is inserted whenever smokeping is started up.

You can write

 ==S,>20%,>20%

to detect lines that have been losing more than 20% of the packets for two
periods after startup.

If you want to make sure a value within a certain range you can use two conditions
in one element

 >45%<=55%

Sometimes it may be that conditions occur at irregular intervals. But still
you only want to throw an alert if they occur several times within a certain
amount of times. The operator B<*X*> will ignore up to I<X> values and still
let the pattern match:

  >10%,*10*,>10%

will fire if more than 10% of the packets have been lost at least twice over the
last 10 samples.

The alert notifications and/or the programs executed are normally triggered every
time the alert matches. If this variable is set to 'yes', they will be triggered
only when the alert's state is changed, ie. when it's raised and when it's cleared.
Subsequent matches of the same alert will thus not trigger a notification.

When this variable is set to 'yes', a notification program (see the B<to> variable
documentation above) will get a sixth argument, B<raise>, which has the value 1 if the alert
was just raised and 0 if it was cleared.

${e}head1 NAME

smokeping_config - Reference for the SmokePing Config File

${e}head1 OVERVIEW

SmokePing takes its configuration from a single central configuration file.
Its location must be hardcoded in the smokeping script and smokeping.cgi.

The contents of this manual is generated directly from the configuration
file parser.

The Parser for the Configuration file is written using David Schweikers
Config::Grammar module. Read all about it in L<Config::Grammar>.

The Configuration file has a tree-like structure with section headings at
various levels. It also contains variable assignments and tables.

Warning: this manual is rather long. See L<smokeping_examples>
for simple configuration examples.

${e}head1 REFERENCE

${e}head2 GENERAL SYNTAX

The text below describes the general syntax of the SmokePing configuration file.
It was copied from the Config::Grammar documentation.

'#' denotes a comment up to the end-of-line, empty lines are allowed and space
at the beginning and end of lines is trimmed.

'\\' at the end of the line marks a continued line on the next line. A single
space will be inserted between the concatenated lines.

'${a}include filename' is used to include another file.

'${a}define a some value' will replace all occurences of 'a' in the following text
with 'some value'.

Fields in tables that contain white space can be enclosed in either C<'> or C<">.
Whitespace can also be escaped with C<\\>. Quotes inside quotes are allowed but must
be escaped with a backslash as well.

${e}head2 SPECIFIC SYNTAX

The text below describes the specific syntax of the SmokePing configuration file.
