pbx-ping(1)

📦 version 0.9.3, in alpine 3.24

💅 pbx-ping(1) — from the General Commands Manual, bestie 💅

✨ NAME ✨

pbx-ping — test if sip endpoints are up. No cap, that’s the whole vibe check. 🦋

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

pbx-ping [options] uri|ext

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so pbx-ping sends an option request to a sip endpoint at the specified uri, then waits for a response while measuring response time. Iconic behavior, honestly. 💅

If a line is used, the uri for that line as registered with coventry is pinged. Yep, that’s the whole deal. ✨

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -6 — Enable IPv6 addressing. IPv6 girlies rise. 🌈
  • -s — Enable SRV dns lookups. 🔎
  • -t — Use sip over tcp. The default is udp. 🫶
  • --config=path — Alternate config file path. For when you need a different path, periodt. 🎀
  • --proxy=uri — Uri of SIP proxy route. 🛰️
  • --info — Show text info of server response message. Give me the deets. 💬
  • --quiet — Quiet one time operation, often used in scripts for getting the exit code. Lowkey for the script besties. 🤫
  • --help — Outputs help screen for the user. The classic “help me help you” moment. 💖

🌸 EXIT CODES 🌸

  • 0 — Returns 0 if ping is successful. Slay. ✅
  • 1 — 1 if there is a parsing error. Sad but honest. 😭
  • 2 — 2 for a sip error or failure. Big yikes. 💀
  • 3 — 3 for timeout. The waiting game lost. ⏳

Cute little sign-off: the footer says Tycho Softworks and Coventry, with pbx-ping(1) down there too — and the date slot is not shown on this page, so I’m not inventing one, bestie. 💖🫶
