=head1 NAME

multi_tcp_ping - Graphs together the TCP ping results for several hosts

=head1 SYNOPSIS

This plugin is meant to be called from Munin. You should set the
'hosts' environment variable from Munin's configuration (i.e.
/etc/munin/munin.conf) to specify which hosts and ports to query.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This plugin expects to receive the following environment variables:

=over 4

=item hosts (REQUIRED!)

Comma-separated list of hosts to query. You can specify the TCP port
to connect to on each of the hosts by listing them as host:port - The
port defaults to 80. The following is a valid hosts declaration:

    hosts='192.168.0.15, 192.168.0.18:22'

It will query host 192.168.0.15 on the default port (80), as well as
host 192.168.0.18 on port 22.

=back

If the connection was opened successfully, it gives as the return
value the time it took to establish the connection. If the requested
host is not reachable, a hard-wired '-0.01' will be returned. Why
-0.01? Because giving a negative value is the best way to easily get
-visually- that something failed. Connection establishment times are
usually in the 5-500ms range. 100ms will be not too little (and thus
invisible), not too much (and thus killing the details in our graphs).
