HTPING(1) General Commands Manual HTPING(1) NAME htping – periodically send HTTP requests SYNOPSIS htping [-4] [-6] [-H field:value] [-X method] [-c count] [-i interval] [-f] [-k] [--http1.1] [--keepalive] [-l addr] [-q] host DESCRIPTION The htping utility periodically sends HTTP requests to host, prints the results and computes some statistics at exit. Use Ctrl-C to quit htping. The options are as follows: -4 Use IPv4 only. -6 Use IPv6 only. -H field:value Add an additional HTTP header to the requests. -X method Send a different HTTP method than the default ‘HEAD’. -c count Stop after sending count requests. By default, htping loops indefinitely. -i interval Perform one HTTP request every interval (default: ‘1s’). -f Flood mode: perform requests back-to-back without waiting. -k Turn TLS verification errors into warnings. --http1.1 Disable HTTP/2 requests. --keepalive Enable keepalive resp. use persistent connections. -l addr Start a HTTP server at addr (e.g. ‘:9100’) to provide Prometheus metrics at ‘/metrics’. -q Quiet mode, don't print request status lines. EXIT STATUS The htping utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
