After the last retransmit has been sent and the peer is considered dead ( plugin hooks ALERT_RETRANSMIT_SEND_TIMEOUT alert ), plugin sends an email with notification, which contains a name and an ip address of the dead peer, or( and ) executes external command with two arguments: dead peer name and ip address. System administrators may find it useful for configuring email alerts and customizing other actions.

Hi Pavel,

what's the advantage of your pluging over the use of the existing error-
notify-plugin in conjunction with an external daemon (could be a script
or so)?

Besides, if you link against libcurl, you will have to add a check
for libcurl to configure.ac

Cheers,
Thomas
