Kintyre Shinnecock speedtest agent

Project description

Kintyre Speedtest Agent

An Internet speedtest monitoring utility for Splunk HEC. Speedtest and other networking information is captured and sent to a central Splunk instance via the Http Event Collector. Scheduled monitoring is handled by the OS scheduler of your choice (often cron or the Windows Scheduler).

The Splunk app and TA are in a different repository and will be available via Splunkbase. This app represents the core work surrounding the speed-test data collection and standalone agent version.
