# Natrix passive check generator for Icinga 2
A [maubot](https://github.com/maubot/maubot) that sends pings to the
[echo](https://github.com/maubot/echo) plugin and sends any replies as
passive check result to Icinga 2.
## Mechanism
This maubot plugin leverages the ping fnuctionality of the echo plugin.
It sends ping messages to a room in configurable intervals, and waits for a
"Pong!" reply from the echo plugin. Both bots occupy this room (and preferrably
should be alone there).
The echo bot sends a tiem diff providing information on how long it took the
ping to arrive. This time is then reported as a passive check result to an Icinga 2
instance.
