Script Syntax

You create a script using keywords. In general, Script Syntax is Command=String. The command is either Send, Expect, SimpleExpect, or Flow Control.

Note: A script can have as many send and receive lines as needed. However, the more you have, the slower the service check.

Keywords

Note: To comment out a line, use the # symbol as the first character of the line.

To send a string to a port, use the Send= keyword.
To expect a string from a port, use the SimpleExpect= or the Expect= keyword.
To receive a conditional response for an error or success, use Flow Control Keywords.

Examples

If you have a TCP service to check, you need to do the following:

expect something on connection
send a command
check for a response
send something to disconnect
